"A HANUKKAH CAROL, OR “GELT TRIP!” THE MUSICAL"
Of German heritage. Based on playwright Heidi Schreck; a brilliant former debate champion who traveled the country in her teens giving speeches about the Constitution at American Legion halls.

(ages 21, 27, 31 and 33). A real bro, he talks before he thinks. A hardcore basketball fan, and sort of a messy bartender, and the mess spills over into the rest of his life. Talkative, funny, he doesn’t hold back. "KING JAMES"
