With 2020 declaring “Humbug!” to large family gatherings and the traditional festivities we usually enjoy on Long island every year, Jeffrey Sanzel, theater director at Theatre Three in Port Jefferson, is giving folks a little bit of Christmas Cheer. Every year, the theater puts on its traditional performance of A Christmas Carol, with Sanzel playing the role of the curmudgeonly old miser Scrooge since 1988. Of course, this year we know how the story ends. (Even the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade went virtual.) Instead of giving in to the ghost of Christmas present - Covid quarantines - Theatre Three decided to go on with the show in a much different format. According to the Theatre Three website, this new take on the holiday classic features six actors filmed socially distanced, with actors both onstage and in the theatre’s auditorium.
