Written by Joe Landry, It’s a Wonderful Life – A Radio Play is based on the beloved Frank Capra film but done in the style of “the golden age of radio.” Come watch and listen as George Bailey discovers that life really is wonderful and see how Clarence, angel second class, acquires his wings. Listen in as radio station WBFR brings us a live broadcast of this treasured story. This is a production that literally evokes laughter and tears but, most of all it evokes memories of a story most of us grew up with and that the world loves. Join Theater in the Open as they transform the Firehouse Center into a 1940′s radio hall, complete with sound-effect foley artists, singing sponsors and old fashioned holiday spirit.
