"Fezziwig and the Ghost of Christmas Present, here both are played by Michael Selkirk, usually provide some comic relief, but Selkirk succeeds in creating two distinct characters who celebrate a love of life and mankind. Fezziwig, who was Scrooge’s first boss, should have been a role model to the young businessman, but instead became for him a cautionary tale of what happens when you do not keep your eye on the bottom line."
