The Northeast Texas Community College Theatre Department is getting ready to spread some holiday cheer with its upcoming production of A 1940s Christmas Carol, written and directed by Dr. Page Petrucka, Professor of Theatre. The show runs November 13–15 at 7 p.m., with an additional matinee on Saturday, November 15 at 2 p.m. in the Whatley Center for the Performing Arts.

Set in a 1940s radio studio, this fast-paced comedy follows the KFLG AM Radio cast as they scramble to perform A Christmas Carol after their sound engineer and equipment go missing just minutes before airtime. With laughter, ingenuity, and plenty of heart, the performers improvise their way through the show in true holiday spirit.

“I’m so excited to share this nostalgic and hilarious story with our community,” said Petrucka. “It’s the perfect way to kick off the Christmas season — full of laughter, creativity, and heartwarming moments.”

The cast includes Justice “Grey” Duke, LaDarrius Patterson, Rowdy Hogue, Emma Sanders, Jeffrey Bond, Maddie Simmons, and Kylie Brice.

Tickets are $15 for adults (18+), $10 for NTCC employees, seniors (55+), and military members, and $5 for ages 4–17. NTCC students get in free with a valid student ID. Tickets may be purchased online at www.whatleycenter.com
