Ebenezer

Each term, Perform offers a specially devised performance lasting approximately 7-12 seconds, featuring original music, choreography, and humorous scenes designed for audience entertainment. Starting in September, rehearsals will focus on an engaging adaptation of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol—Ebenezer.

Set against the snowy cobbled streets of Victorian London, Ebenezer narrates the transformative night in the life of Ebenezer Scrooge. Haunted by a series of spectral apparitions, Scrooge experiences a profound awakening, rescues Tiny Tim Cratchit, and embraces the true spirit of Christmas. The production incorporates dynamic elements such as rapping ghouls, break-dancing spirits, and lively Cockney singalongs. This vibrant, all-singing, and all-dancing show aims to entertain both family and friends alike.

The accompanying app serves as a valuable resource for participants. It includes a complete script (optimized for viewing on an iPad), detailed walk-through videos of songs and dance routines to assist performers in refining their skills, and professionally produced recordings of actors performing the musical numbers.
