I remember the excitement and energy of everyone in the audience, especially the kids! Felicia Curry as Ghost of Christmas Past in the Ford’s Theatre production of “A Christmas Carol,” directed by Michael Baron. It was magical, she enters flying all around the stage so elegantly and gracefully and then suddenly throws snow in Scrooge’s bedroom. Do you have a favorite film or stage memory of this Christmas story?Īctually one of my most favorite moments of seeing this story on stage was here at Ford’s Theatre! I will always remember the first time I saw Felicia Curry make her entrance as the Ghost of Christmas Past. I have seen it twice! And I remember loving it both times. Have you seen A Christmas Carol at Ford’s? I just loved the story! The Ford’s Theatre 2016 Young Company of “A Christmas Carol.” Photo by Scott Suchman. I remember falling in love with the movie, wanting to watch it over and over, and sing along! Then I saw that there were different versions of the story on film and watched those too. I watched the version with music by Alan Menken on TV. I first encountered A Christmas Carol as a little girl. When did you first encounter the story of A Christmas Carol? I believe the story is timeless because it brings awareness to such classic themes, finding humanity, finding kindness and compassion and not only during Christmas time but everyday. Why do you think the story is so timeless? For many in the region, coming to A Christmas Carol is an annual tradition. I am looking forward to working with such a lovely group of human beings, and to sharing this beautiful story with so many families during my favorite time of the year! I am especially excited to be flying all around the stage. What are you most looking forward to about playing the Ghost of Christmas Past? This holiday season you’ll play one of the otherworldly sprits who spooks Scrooge Out of his selfish ways and brings him back to compassion.
