erik-wagner-and-ashley-meng-4 After getting a glimpse of the OCIS Theater Club's performance of "A Christmas Carol", it is a must see event.  Wednesday evening, the cast and crew performed a dress rehearsal and their timing and passion was spot on. This is not some watered down version of the classic.  They are performing the complete musical version of the play with live musical accompaniment.   Michelle Tornblom and Andrew Benfer are directing the production. ocis-ms-weaver-4 Ms. Weaver, a 6th grade social studies teacher, will be playing live piano for the entire show. Erik Wagner, for the third year in a role, will play the lead role.  He is taking on the part of Ebenezer Scrooge.  When asked about the experience, Erik said "It's been a great experience for the entire OCIS Theatre Club to do a full version of the show instead of a shortened version of the original. Everybody has worked hard and is excited to present this musical to our family, friends, and fellow students."
