Dispatches from Home – Mr. Scrooge. The Old Teaching The New.

“Just think, young man,” Mr. Scrooge said with a sparkle in his eyes. “In an hour, this old theater will be packed to the balcony.

“I’m scared,” said the young man with fear in his eyes.

“My child, don’t be,” Mr. Scrooge said. “We rehearsed; we know our songs and our blocking. Just do what we’ve done in rehearsals, and you’ll be great! The audience is gonna love us. You’ll be thrilled when you hear ’em laugh, watch ’em smile, and see ’em stand to their feet at curtain call, all shoutin’ and clappin’ loud. Trust me, my child, I know.”

“Thank you, Mr. Scrooge. I love you. “

“And I love you, dear boy.”

Big hug, y’all 🥰
