Allen Fitzpatrick brings his acclaimed solo show to Bremerton's Admiral Theatre!


Charles Dickens’ famed novella, adapted and staged by Allen Fitzpatrick, in which he performs more than 20 roles.

Allen follows in the footsteps of Charles Dickens who, a few years after writing the novella, began public readings of it which he continued to perform until the year of his death. Allen performs 26 characters, telling the entire story in one hour.


Allen has spent 50 years on Broadway and in professional theatre, working alongside such notables as Stephen Sondheim, Andrew Lloyd-Webber, Harold Prince, John Guare, and Marvin Hamlisch. He debuted on Broadway in Les Miserables; among his eight other Broadway credits are Driving Miss Daisy (with James Earl Jones), The Scarlet Pimpernel, Damn Yankees (with Jerry Lewis), and 42nd Street. He was the stand-by for John Lithgow in Sweet Smell of Success, directed by Sir Nicholas Hytner. Allen shared an Emmy Award for his contribution to Passion: Live from Lincoln Center, in which he appeared opposite Patti LuPone. He starred opposite Petula Clark in Sunset Boulevard, with Keith Michell in Lloyd-Webber's Aspects of Love, and with Marlo Thomas in Six Degrees of Separation. He has appeared in 28 productions at Seattle’s 5th Avenue Theatre, was featured in several Broadway national tours, and played a leading role in the premiere of Whistle Down the Wind directed by Hal Prince. He has appeared often on television.

ADDITIONAL CREDITS: Sound design by Bry Kifolo-Stosius.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCTION: In 2021, Denise Winter, esteemed Artistic Director of The Key City Public Theatre in Port Townsend commissioned Allen to create a solo show. The show was performed in multiple venues in 2021, 2022, and 2023.

This story has been represented in over a hundred adaptations for stage, film, opera, and radio. In this version, audiences have the opportunity to use the full range of their imagination as one actor— on a virtually bare stage— creates 26 different characters.

Audiences have been delighted by the personal, individual impact which this approach affords.

Dickens' novella captures the zeitgeist of the mid-Victorian revival of the Christmas holiday, popularizing many aspects of Christmas celebration— including family gatherings, seasonal food and drink, dancing, games, and a festive generosity of spirit. And it shows the path by which selfish, acquisitive men may redeem themselves. Its most important theme, however— all too relevant today— is to shine a glaring light on mistreatment of the poor. Dickens wrote his novella in response to British social attitudes towards poverty. He was compelled to show the repercussions of ignoring the poor— especially children— in poverty.
