Based on the very first prime-time animated holiday special, Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol is being presented on stage for the first time and features an unforgettable score by Funny Girl’s songwriting team, composer Jule Styne and lyricist Bob Merrill. Proceeds from the evening will benefit the programs and services of The Actors Fund, the national human services organization that helps everyone in performing arts and entertainment. The evening will feature the original orchestration – heard live for the first time – with a full orchestra.
Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol is a delightful retelling of the Dickens classic, featuring the comically myopic cartoon character Quincy Magoo. Originally airing in December 1962, Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol was the first animated holiday special ever produced specifically for television.
