Kris Kringle Parade

Every year the cast of A Christmas Carol marches in the annual Kris Kringle Parade. This parade winds through Historic Downtown Frederick and includes high school bands, girl scouts and cub scouts dressed in holiday garb and of course, Kris Kringle himself!

The cast meets at MET to get dressed, and then head over to the Delaplaine to line up:

Long-time METster Ashley Hall helps the children get dressed.

There are lots of kids in A Christmas Carol and finding shoes, stockings, pants, shirts, coats and hats for them all is always an interesting challenge!
Tad Janes (right), who plays Scrooge, has been growing those fabulous mutton chops for weeks! He applies white cream to his hair with a tooth brush

At last it's time for the parade! It was cold on Friday night, but our cast marched with smiles, handing out postcards promoting MET's holiday lineup.
