| In this version Scrooge (Johnson) was a hoofer who left the stage and her partner in search of wealth. They didn't want to be Scrooge, but they didn't want to be suckers either. Marley's Boast by Marv Gold is a "sequel" to the famous work by Charles Dickens, "A Christmas Carol", and is set on Christmas Eve 1860, some seventeen years after Scrooge underwent his transformation from miser to benefactor because of his experiences with the ghosts of Christmases past, present and future. |
