“It’s a Wonderful Life – A Live Radio Play”

July 2526, & 27, 2019 at 8 p.m.

Tickets: $15 

Presented by: The Footlighters of Elk County

It’s a Wonderful Life has become almost as familiar as a holiday classic as Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Performed as a 1940s style radio play, it is the familiar saga of George Bailey, the Everyman from the small town of Bedford Falls, whose dreams of escape and adventure have been quashed by family obligation and civic duty. His guardian angel appears on Christmas Eve to save him from despair and to remind him—by showing him what the world would have been like had he never been born—that his has been, after all, a wonderful life. This radio play has all of your favorite characters: George and Mary Hatch, Clarence, Uncle Billy, Violet, and, of course, the Scrooge-like villain, Mr. Potter. This fine dramatization not only celebrates the faith of the season, it also celebrates the American philosophy of life: hard work, fair play and the love and support of one’s family and community will be rewarded.

Adapted by Philip Grecian. Based on the film by Frank Capra. Produced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois.
