It was another beautiful day up The Hill. Today s picnic menu included canned cocktails (they re better than you d think), fried chicken and cholate mousse tort from an area café. It did not, unfortunately, include any Cognac.
Rough Crossing is side splitting and uproariously fun. Sandor Turai (James Ridge) and Alex Gal (Jamal James) are two playwrights who hit the high seas with their two lead actors and their young composer to bring their yet-to-be completed newest musical to New York. Adam (Josh Krause), their young composer, is engaged to their lead actress, Natasha Navratilova (Kelsey Brennan), who is having a secret affair with their lead actor, intellectually-challenged Ivor Fish (Marcus Truschinski). Rounding out the hilarious cast and circumstances is Dvornichek (David Daniels), a simple purser on the SS Italian Castle. The real question the audience was clamoring to have answered by the end of the show was, will Turai ever get a Cognac?

Iâve lost count this year of how many theaters have produced variations of Charles Dickensâ âA Christmas Carol.â While weâre in the midst of a pandemic, all of the productions, including the one-man and the one-woman-and-puppets shows, have been unique and popular this year.
However, just when I thought Dickens had been totally accounted for with both streaming and limited seating, the Westport Country Playhouse came up with such a special production that I didnât know whether to call it new or old.
The Playhouse, in partnership with WSHU Public Radio, presented a radio play âA Merry Little Christmas Carolâ based on Dickensâs novella. It is not only unique, but incredibly imaginative and thoroughly wonderful.

WESTPORT, CT - Westport Country Playhouse is presenting A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS CAROL in partnership with WSHU Public Radio, which means you do not have to travel to Westport in order to enjoy it.
The free-of-charge audio play, which features Paxton Whitehead in the role of Scrooge, offers everyone a holiday experience from your very own home. I was able to catch the two-hour premiere on Saturday, December 19 but there is one additional chance to experience the show at a rebroadcast on WSHU on Saturday, December 26, at 8 p.m. WSHU frequencies and locations are listed at wshu.org in the About Us drop-down menu.
