Grammy Award Nominee for Best Spoken Word Album!

Tiny Tim, Bob Cratchit, and Ebenezer Scrooge come to marvelous life in Patrick Stewart's critically acclaimed solo interpretation of A Christmas Carol.

The star of X-Men and The Royal Shakespeare Company, Stewart has performed his one-man stage production of this holiday classic to sell-out audiences. Now, in this Grammy-nominated studio recording of the dazzling achievement that has thrilled audiences in New York and Los Angeles, Stewart invites listeners to rediscover the timeless story at its source: Dickens' own words, presented in a soaring, virtuoso solo performance in which Stewart plays all parts.©1991 Camm Lane, Inc; (P)2006 Simon and Schuster, Inc.

To be sure, they chose exactly the right person to narrate A Christmas Carol. Personally, I would have loved it to be an unabridged version, but I’m glad for what we got.

The right man for the job
