A World Premiere Comedy

Written and Directed by TODD OLSON

Presented by special arrangement with Summerwind Productions, LLC

The hilarious story of what may have happened when Hans Christian Andersen moved into Charles Dickens’ house…and wouldn’t leave.

“Who doesn’t love famous people?”
- Hans Christian Andersen (probably)

From the Executive Director: "We close our inaugural season with something completely different: a hilarious World Premiere comedy from award-winning playwright and director Todd Olson (My Way, I Left My Heart). Inspired by real events, we get a glimpse of what may have happened when Hans Christian Andersen came to visit Charles Dickens’ summer home for two weeks…and stayed for five! The visit quickly spirals into a clash of personalities, egos, family tensions, theatrical chaos...and cake.

This show is smart, fast, funny, and full of larger-than-life characters. It's exactly the kind of comedy that reminds us why live theatre is such a joy. And because this is a world premiere, you’ll be among the very first audiences anywhere to experience it. That’s something special." -W.M.
