Karl Wells: A Christmas Carol

ChristmasFilm

Dec. 24

Karl Wells is a household name around these parts, and for good reason. He has had a long and successful media career. From daily appearances on CBC and writing for The Telegram, to producing and appearing on Rogers Television, Wells has been part of our lives for years.

This Christmas, Wells is bringing Ebenezer Scrooge to life in a one-man dramatic performance of A Christmas Carol. The film is a faithful re-telling the Dickens story with Wells delivering all characters — Scrooge to Tiny Tim — in an entertaining and poignant piece that runs just under one-hour. Making the video even cooler, is the choice to shoot it at The Commissariat provincial historic site in St. John’s. It provides an era-appropriate setting, and gives viewers an opportunity to see and experience some of the province’s history in a fun, innovative way.

You can see Wells’ A Christmas Carol on his YouTube Channel or on Rogers TV where it is airing throughout Christmas.
