...something Playwright Maxwell Anderson apparently dashed off on the back of an old theater program. Composer Bernard Herrmann contributed a few carols lacking either spirit or strength to presume on old standbys, and some solo songs (lyrics also by Anderson) that seemed saccharine even from Tiny Tim (Christopher Cook). Occasionally Fredric March as Scrooge showed some of his talent (as when he tried to wish away Marley's ghost as a case of indigestion), but for the most part, he seemed to be trying to caricature Scrooge Emeritus, the late Lionel Barrymore.

...Harl Cook looks at life cheerfully. He is the son of George Cram "Jig" Cook, founder of the Provincetown Playhouse and inspirer of Eugene O'Neill when the playwright's work was first produced on the Cape in 1916. The elder Cook, writes O'Neill, was "always enthusiastic, vital, impatient with everything that smacked of falsity--he represented the spirit of revolt." Cook fils is also something of a rebel.
