"We begin our story in the little town of Bedford Falls, New York, U.S. of A...."

A group of actors and technicians gather in a 1940's radio station at holiday time to perform a live broadcast of "It's A Wonderful Life."

Replete with Foley sound effects, commercials from the era, and sprinkled throughout with a generous dose of music and humor, this charming piece brings the famous story to life in a new way and fills the theatre with the inspiring spirit of the holidays.
