"It's A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play" Trailer at Long Wharf Theatre

By Joe Landry Directed by Eric Ting Mainstage December 7-31, 2011 George Bailey famously learns that "no man is a failure who has friends" in It's A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play. Inspired by the classic holiday film, this holiday treat brings the spirit of the season to life live on stage right before your eyes (and ears). Performed as a 1940s live radio broadcast in front of a studio audience, five actors play the dozens of characters as well as produce the sound effects bringing to life the town of Bedford Falls. Let your imagination build the scene and see the story anew with this nostalgic and spirit-lifting tale. "One of the best holiday shows around. Fresh and inventive. Highly recommended." -- The Chicago Sun-Times
