The Hudson Valley's Master Storyteller Jonathan Kruk brings his legendary one-person show of Charles Dickens' classic yuletide tale, "A Christmas Carol" to the Library.  The New York Times describes Jonathan Kruk as having "a way with the spoken word, the telling gesture, the sprinkling of humor, and the appropriate costume for a smorgasbord of stories." Join us as Jonathan assumes the characters of Scrooge, Marley, the Ghosts of Christmas, Bob Cratchit, and even Tiny Tim in an hour-long performance with musical accompaniment by harpist Erika Lieberman.
