A Christmas Carol, the perennial holiday favorite promises to be an even bigger draw for a local theatrical group in western Massachusetts this year with the announcement by the Berkshire Community Theatre that singer James Taylor will appear in one of the signature roles.  JT will appear as Bob Cratchit, a role that isn't too much of a stretch for one of the most down-to-earth guys in the music biz.  The play, Taylor's first, will be staged December 17-30 at the Colonial Theatre in Pittsfield, MA.  Director Eric Hill says he is thrilled to have Taylor in the cast, saying, ' I know that James will bearing his inherent charm and gentleness to bear in his portrayal of Bob Cratchit, a good and unprentitious man.'
