Published Reviews

"Like a breath of fresh air ... A different delightful production of A Christmas Carol ... Elwell's script injects a keenly appreciated sense of anticipation into the weary old yarn ... This A Christmas Carol is fun, fast-moving, albeit a tad shadowy. In other words -- an unmitigated delight."

Larry L. Kubert, Lincoln Journal Star

"A fresh Christmas story... The Christmas Foundling presented unmistakeable pleasures."

DC Theatre Reviews

"A feel good play, to warm your heart and make you delight in the magic of the season."
