Theater to See in N.Y.C. This Holiday Season

The Round House Theater in Bethesda, Md., goes in a rather different direction with the new “A Hanukkah Carol, or Gelt Trip! The Musical” (through Dec. 29), in which Scrooge is now a nefarious millennial influencer named Chava Kanipshin (Samantha Sayah). Finally, the Isaac Bashevis Singer short stories “The Mirror,” “The Last Demon” and “Kukeriku” are adapted for the stage (and presented in Yiddish with surtitles) as “Bashevis’s Demons” (Out of the Box Theater, Dec. 18- Jan. 5). As in “A Christmas Carol,” the show dwells in a universe in which the supernatural is part of everyday life.
