Ronnie Burkett’s
Little Dickens
November 19 – December 15, 2019
If you missed the 2018 Daisy Theatre production Ronnie Burkett Theatre of Marionettes, don’t get left out this year. The 2019 version opened tonight to a sold-out house as they presented a new take on an old classic, A Christmas Carol. As was his previous production, this puppet show is adult content. Ronnie Burkett builds his marionettes and brings them to life in a show that runs two hours and never gets boring. In fact, those of us who know some of the characters from last year have adopted them as favorites. The transition to characters from the Dickens’ novel is easy for Burkett who seems to have as much fun “working” his marionettes as we get as an audience looking in.
The show opened tonight for a 26-day run and has already been extended for six additional performances till December 21. Montreal theatre audiences are very fortunate to have this play in the Christmas season. Give yourself a gift and book your tickets while they are available.
