Saturday, Dec. 19 and Sunday, Dec. 20
The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby by David Edgar from the Novel by Charles Dickens
Discussant: Peter Perault, MD
The complete Dickens masterpiece comes to life! In a culture grown tired of the sound bite, we're seeing attention return to great storytelling traditions, and long before new masters such as JK Rowling, there was Charles Dickens, the greatest serial writer of them all. Edgar's adaptation takes us on a thrilling ride, with humor, fantastic turns of fate, and the rich, emotional moments that make up life's astounding journey.
