SUMMARY:Manual Cinema's Christmas Carol
DESCRIPTION:An avowed holiday skeptic\, Aunt Trudy has been recruited to channel her late husband Joe’s famous Christmas cheer. From the isolation of her studio apartment\, she reconstructs his annual “Christmas Carol” puppet show–over a Zoom call while the family celebrates Christmas Eve under lockdown. But as Trudy becomes more absorbed in her own version of the story\, the puppets take on a life of their own\, and the family’s call transforms into a stunning cinematic adaptation of Dickens’s classic ghost story.  \nIn this world-premiere online event\, the Chicago-based\, world-renowned interdisciplinary performance collective\, Manual Cinema\, takes on Charles Dickens’s holiday classic\, A Christmas Carol\, with a visually inventive adaptation made specifically for audiences of all ages this holiday season. Purdue Convocations audience’s may remember their delight in Manual Cinema’s remarkable production\, Lula Del Ray\, at Elliott Hall in March of 2016.  \nEach showing of Manual Cinema’s Christmas Carol will be performed LIVE from Manual Cinema’s Chicago studio each night\, but you’ll enjoy it from the comfort of your own home. It will be told with hundreds of paper puppets\, miniatures\, silhouettes\, and a live original sound score in an imaginative re-invention of a cherished holiday tradition. \n \nFAQ\nHow many tickets do I need to get for my friends & family?\nThis performance is priced for your household. Whether you watch it by yourself or with your family of four\, one household ticket covers your viewing experience. \nCan I purchase tickets for my friends or family members?\nAbsolutely.
