"INSPECTING CAROL" A sidesplitting holiday hit since premiering at the Seattle Rep in 1992, "Inspecting Carol" is part "Noises Off," part "Waiting for Guffman."  Almost Broke, Soapbox Theatre Company is struggling to mount their annual cash cow, the holiday classic "A Christmas Carol."  An inspector from the National Endowment for the Arts is expected any minute.  When a young actor is mistaken for the inspector, cast and crew cater to his every whim to try and win their government funding.  The result: the most hilarious and disastrous production of "A Christmas Carol" ever.
