One Man Show of Dickens' Classic at Princeton United Methodist Church

Equity actor Scott Langdon will perform his fresh and highly acclaimed adaptation of A Christmas Carol on Friday, December 11, at Princeton United Methodist Church, located at Nassau and Vandeventer. Dessert, accompanied by carol-singing, will be served at 7 p.m. and the one-man performance is at 8 p.m. A free-will offering will be taken for the Appalachia Service Project.
With over 30 years of performing experience to his credit, ranging from regional theater to children's television, Langdon has performed everywhere from Oklahoma City to Vienna, Austria. A resident of Plainsboro, he has a master’s degree from Oklahoma City University where he studied with Florence Birdwell.

Princeton United Methodist Church has been participating in the Appalachia Service Project (ASP) program since the mid-70s and sent 41 participants last July. ASP operates several centers in mountainous Central Appalachia, which has poverty rates three times the national average.
 
“Everyone from Jim Carrey to Patrick Stewart to The Muppets have had a go at delivering this timeless tale, yet it continues to be relevant and gets to the heart and soul of the holidays,” says Langdon. “It has been a dream of mine for years to bring this to the stage and this unique adaptation will bring the story to life in a whole new way.”
