IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE

 

About

Join us for a reimagined version of America’s beloved holiday classic!

 

“… a bright, energetic and uplifting holiday show with plenty of laughs, good cheer and poignant moments for children and adults alike." -- Mark Bretz, Ladue News

Great for the whole family! The beloved American holiday classic leaps to life on stage in a delightful, heartwarming new adaptation. On Christmas Eve 1949, KMTC Radio St. Louis is prepared to perform a live radio broadcast of It’s a Wonderful Life, when unexpected events transform the station’s staff into the radio play’s actors. Complete with microphones, live sound effects by a Foley artist, 1940s period costumes, and a diverse company of characters, the play tells the story of George Bailey and his discovery of the life-affirming message that one life can change the whole fabric of a community.
