Last night, my honey and I went to a lovely production of "A Christmas Carol". The twist with this particular take on it was that it was told from the perspective of Charles Dickens, as he was writing it, with the performers doubling as thought-streams or muses in addition to their multiple character and environmental roles, with the story being developed, argued over, changed and performed as he writes it. Definitely a fun show, and well-performed. As for why I'm talking about it here, one of the performers had a very Pinkie Pie quality to her, very random and off-the-wall. Sealing that thought was when they had to make various night-time noises, and she cut loose with chicken noises, straight out of "Luna Eclipsed", and did this at least twice more through the production. Made my honey and I both wonder what a MLP:FiM production of "A Christmas Carol" (or "A Hearthwarming Night Carol", as the case would likely be) would come out.
