Preview of Dad's Garage's improv show that twists A Christmas Carol with a surprise character that invades every performance.
Dad's Garage Ensemble is bringing Invasion: Christmas Carol back to Dad's Garage this winter, with previews on Monday, November 23 and Tuesday, November 24, before the full run from November 27 through December 30. It's a Dad's Garage original that takes Charles Dickens's holiday classic and turns it on its head, blending improv with traditional scripted theater.
The hook is the same every time: Scrooge's Dickensian world is visited in every single performance by a new, wacky surprise character that even the cast doesn't know is coming. Past invaders have included Ripley from Alien, Scrooge McDuck from Ducktales, the MCU's Thanos, William Shakespeare, and Macho Man Randy Savage. Because the guest changes every night, no two shows are the same.
The show runs about 90 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission. There are three family-friendly matinees at 2 PM throughout the run. Two special nights stand out: the Pride Night edition on December 3 is a celebration of the chosen family, with a percentage of ticket sales supporting Atlanta Pride in partnership with Out Front Theatre, and a Hanukkah Night follows on December 9.
