The Plot: With split-second costume changes, Isaac and Ethan will portray all 24 citizens of Texas' third smallest town, where the Lion's Club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies. It's 24 hours before Christmas and chaos is about to break loose as the delightfully eccentric characters attempt to cope with seasonal traumas such as a disaster prone little theatre production of A Christmas Carol, and a yard decorating contest that is being sabotaged by a mysterious Christmas phantom!
The Cast
ISAAC BARTON has experience in quick-change roles, having previously appeared in and co-directed The Complete Works of Shakespeare, Abridged. Isaac has also appeared in numerous productions with Park Playhouse and Rosebriar Shakespeare Company, including the Jester in Once Upon a Mattress, Toby Belch in Twelfth Night, and Bottom in A Midsummer Night's Dream.
ETHAN BARTON stepped into this role after a previous actor moved to L.A. for a job in the movies, but Ethan is not without stage experience. He has appeared in such roles as Trinculo in The Tempest, Rutland in an extended version of Richard III, and the title role in Hans Christian Anderson. Most recently, Ethan choreographed the fights for PCT's summer production of The Hobbit.
Together, Isaac and Ethan are two-thirds of the band Ikiru and have produced and directed several short films. This is the first time they have co-directed a production for Pickerington Community Theatre.
