The El Dorado High School Drama III/IV class will present the one act play "Bus Stop" later this week, and Director Hannah Davis said students are hoping their performance can help raise money for a local nonprofit.
A Christmas Carol . A Radio Play will be performed on stage at 7 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday by the South Arkansas Arts Center of El Dorado Drama Club.
The familiar story will be told as a radio drama onstage, complete with sound effects and music cues. A Christmas Carol begins with the storyteller and his friends discussing the tale of the mean and stingy Ebenezer Scrooge. They decide on an opening line, and the storyteller begins, transforming into Scrooge as he speaks.
Throughout, the storyteller remains in the Scrooge characterization, as the other actors narrate in their natural voices and assume new voices and dialects to become every character in the tale.
