DC Theatre Scene: An Irish Carol (2016)

This is the sixth year Keegan has run AN IRISH CAROL so the surprises are few, but it is—like the best Christmas fare and despite some dramatic twists—a heartwarming yarn about the best in us trumping the worst. It’s buoyed by touches of humor …  It’s a very real cast, grounded by a moody set and lighting that’ll have you wanting to spend your Christmas Eve in Ireland.  AN IRISH CAROL is a lovely spin on the traditional Christmas tale surely on its way to becoming a classic in its own right.
