| | About THOM BRAY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) |
 | | Helping out the illusion considerably, in addition to Bray's waistcoat and Dickensian bush of beard, was the venerable setting of the 1882 church itself, with its gaily painted pipe organ rising toward the ceiling and the well-worn wood of its dais, where Bray moved easily between a lectern and a simple table. |
 | | When, at the end, old Scrooge proclaims the sudden wondrous lightness of his soul, Bray flaps and flounders and takes on a look of such rapt unfettered foolishness that you are utterly convinced that here is a soul redeemed. |
 | | And yet, Bray reminds us that this is a story with teeth, with a good deal of humor but also a clear and sometimes frightening vision of right and wrong, and with an embrace of sentiment as a natural aspect of a whole and well-contemplated world view. |
