The North Charleston Cultural Arts Department is set to host a special seasonal dinner theatre performance in North Charleston on Thursday, December 6th, with Dylan Thomas’ Christmas in Wales presented by Actors’ Theatre of South Carolina and Chamber Music Charleston.

Dylan Thomas’ Christmas in Wales is an enchanting musical production based on famous Welsh poet Dylan Thomas’ 1955 beloved radio story A Child’s Christmas in Wales.  Starring Broadway, film, and TV veteran actor, Clarence Felder, and featuring musicians from Chamber Music Charleston, the show shares Thomas’ memories of an old fashioned Christmas, from snow ball fights and delights of opening presents to singing carols and  wild adventures in the village. The highly acclaimed and engaging Christmas memoir is full of humorous and poignant anecdotes of long ago woven together with classical music. As freelance entertainment critic Diane Scher describes, “[The play is] a must see…royally performed by Clarence Felder…magic and mirth of storytelling and beautiful Christmas carols, played by three of the finest musicians in Charleston…a remarkable trio…universally delightful… Dylan Thomas was a literary genius… this is some of the finest acting and music you will encounter in our beautiful city…”
