The Gang of Twenty and Six

In 2012, David Marchuck Barbour first wrote the poetry for and published The Gang of Twenty and Six. Wonderfully illustrated by Brian Lyle Bemisdarfer, Des Moines, Iowa, this ‘Read to Me’ book placed 2nd in the Colorado Independent Publishers Association EVVY awards. Ten years later, David wanted to produce a Scripture-oriented audio/video version of ‘The Gang.’ Thus, Millpond Ink/Quiet Corner Productions produced this updated version (complete with Scripture verse, added visuals, and the marvelously entertaining musical compositions of Mr. Shane Ivers, Silverman Sound Studios, Buckingham, England. We pray that our viewers – young and old – will find this production a blessing for viewing and sharing in an educational and worship setting.

A Christmas Carol
Reunion and Farewell

Five years in the writing, David Marchuck Barbour’s fifteen-year post script of Charles Dicken’s A Christmas Carol was finally settled. Why five years? He would have not taken so long if he had merely read Dicken’s novel, but no, no… he thought he knew the story based on the staged readings that he had heard and the movies he had seen. According to those sources, the story is about a greedy curmudgeon who faces his own mortality after spending Christmas Eve with his former business partner, Jacob Marley, and three Christmas ghosts. That is what the story is about, right? No. If David read Dicken’s novel from the first, he would have learned that Dickens included a distinctly Gospel message in his story. Ironically, Dicken’s message to Scrooge through Jacob Marley is similar to the message that is central to our historical fiction of LOOK! and the testimony of H.C. Spurgeon when he heard the passage of Isaiah 45:22 read in his youth. ‘Look unto me and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth.’ Jacob Marley’s lament to Scrooge? Why did I not look up! See that blessed Star! We pray that you will enjoy our mixed media, stop motion action production of A Christmas Carol Reunion and Farewell.
