Directed by Paul Falconer
Performed: January 8-18 2025
“Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.” This production is a play version of the classic Christmas movie by Frank Capra. On Christmas Eve, 1946, Bedford Falls, down-on-his-luck banker George Bailey feels life has passed him by, and he’s at the end of his rope. But when George’s guardian angel pays him a visit, he’s amazed to discover what life in his beloved town would be like without him. Maybe it’s a wonderful life, after all?
