Music
Altman embraces his Jewishness
in his own way, through Jewmongous, a concert performance that employs the New Yorker's talents as
a singer, songwriter, and musician to both poke fun at and celebrate his heritage. Though Altman goes for laughs (and his show is not for kids), he also aims to make deeper, more serious points.

"A Christmas Carol"
at Walnut Street Theatre
Travel to 19th-century London on Saturday and meet Ebenezer Scrooge at the Walnut Street Theatre production of A Christmas Carol. The play, based on the 1843 novel by Charles Dickens, takes audiences to the world of the selfish, and greedy Scrooge - who begins to change his feelings toward Christmas when he receives some ghostly visits.
