It's a Wonderful Life

It’s a Wonderful Life transports audiences to a 1940s radio studio, where a company of celebrated actors gathers to perform Frank Capra’s timeless Christmas classic live on-the-air. Under the direction of four-time Tony Award winner Jerry Zaks, a cast of five actors brings beloved characters to life, transforming before our eyes into the unforgettable George and Mary Bailey, Clarence, Mr. Potter, Uncle Billy and beyond. With a foley artist creating sounds on stage, a live band playing beloved Christmas carols during the commercial breaks, and plenty of theatrical surprises, the story unfolds with all the imagination and spontaneity of an old-fashioned radio broadcast - and all the energy of a Broadway show. At its heart remains the story audiences have loved for generations: George Bailey, a man who has spent his life putting everyone else first, finds himself at the end of his rope on Christmas Eve - until an unlikely angel shows him what Bedford Falls, and the lives of everyone he loves, might have looked like without him. It’s a Wonderful Life turns a holiday tradition into a shared live experience. Part Broadway play, part Christmas concert, part 1940s radio broadcast, it’s an evening designed to make an audience laugh, sing, and rediscover why this story has endured for 80 years.
