IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE
December 6 - 22, 2013
Adapted for the stage by James W. Rogers Based upon the film by Frank Capra and the story by Philip Van Doren Stern Produced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois. Directed by Jim Curtiss and David Work In our American culture It's a Wonderful Life has become almost as familiar as Dickens' A Christmas Carol. The story is a natural for a stage adaptation: the 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. George’s guardian angel descends 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 faithful adaptation has all your favorite characters: George, Mary, Clarence the angel, 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. |
