# Event Details - **Event Name**: Inspecting Carol - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 21 Dec, 2025 at 02:00 pm – Sun, 21 Dec, 2025 at 05:00 pm - **Event Description**: The Matthews presents Inspecting Carol, a hilarious backstage holiday comedy where everything goes wrong in a frantic community theater!About this EventThe Matthews Community Theater proudly presents Inspecting Carol by Daniel J. Sullivan, a backstage holiday comedy that spoofs both A Christmas Carol and the frantic world of community theater. The play follows a struggling theatre troupe as they prepare for their annual production of Dickens’ classic. Everything goes wrong: actors forget lines, the set collapses, egos clash, and rehearsals spiral out of control. When the troupe mistakes a clueless wannabe actor for a feared National Endowment for the Arts inspector, panic sets in, and desperate attempts to impress lead to even more ridiculous disasters.Full of slapstick, satire, and seasonal spirit, Inspecting Carol is a joyful romp that celebrates the magic (and madness) of live theater. With clever wordplay, physical comedy, and a cast of eccentric characters, this hilarious farce is perfect for anyone who enjoys laughter, theatrical hijinks, and the unpredictable charm of community theater.Performances: December 12th-14th, 16th, & 19th-21stFridays & Saturdays • 7:00 pmSundays • 2:00 pm | Tuesday • 7:00 pmDirected by Max G.
