floors and at 17 bars. There’s also the traditional

Plays and Musicals
“Twist Your Dickens”
— A fun performance by Port-
land Center Stage. The PCS website says, “Scrooge,
Tiny Tim and those know-it-all ghosts find them-
selves hopelessly mixed up in zany holiday sketches
with anachronistic characters, uproarious improv
and an ever-changing stable of drop-in local celebrity
guests.” Performances are Tuesday through Sunday
evenings at 7:30. Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2
p.m. and Thursday matinees at noon. There are age
restrictions for this performance. On stage now
