''Fellow Passengers'' is a three-actor narrative theatre adaptation of Charles Dickens' ''A Christmas Carol'' written by Greg Carter. The title is derived from a first-scene speech by Fred, the nephew of Ebenezer Scrooge, who says: "I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round... as a good time: a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time: the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were ''fellow passengers'' to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys."〔Charles Dickens, ''A Christmas Carol'' (1843)〕 ''Passengers'' opened at Strawberry Theatre Workshop in Seattle, Washington in December, 2004. The original director was Rhonda J Soikowski, and the acting ensemble was Todd Jefferson Moore, Gabriel Baron, and Marty Mukhalian.〔(Gallery )〕 ==Plot== ''Fellow Passengers'' uses nearly every word of the original Dickens novel activated by the cast as narrative theatre. The purpose is to restore the satire and political comment omitted from more common dramatic adaptations of the story.〔(Press Release )〕 Three actors (including one woman) rotate into the role of Scrooge. In the original production, the play was set in an attic with found objects taking the place of many characters: a broken stool played Tiny Tim, a lantern stood in for the Ghost of Christmas Past, a large double-bass trunk represented the Ghost of Christmas future.〔Seattle Actor 16 December 2005〕
