Christmas Carol with a twist
|
Easter CArol is basically the story of Dicken's classic Christmas Carol, but adapted beautifully for Easter. The highlight of the show is the tear-jerking ballad sung by angelic "Hope" to a backdrop of stained glass pictorials of Jesus's life from birth to death to resurrection. I still cry every time I watch the tender scene.
My only complaint is the rather awkward emphasis by the Veggie-version of Marley's ghost--Grandma Nezzer--who makes a big point of saying that she is not a ghost, but a vision, then explaining how a vision is different. "Hope", the Veggie-version of all three ghosts of Christmas, also explains that she is not a ghost, but the "Hope" of Easter. It throws off the rhythm of the humor and story, and overall, seems more confusing to kids. I understand if some Christian denominations don't like the idea of ghosts--but it IS a fictional story; afterall, there's also no such thing as talking vegetables.
Overall, worth investing in. My toddlers had a great understanding of Easter after watching this several times in the weeks before Lent. |
