It's A Wonderful Life: Live From WVL Radio Theatre
Since 2009, audiences from Chicago to Miami have come to know and love Immediate Theatre Project's annual performance of "Live From WVL Radio Theatre: It's A Wonderful Life." This fresh new adaptation of the film is set in the fictional studio of WVL Radio Theatre, which is struggling to stay on the air one snowy winter's night. The professional voice actors are unable to get to the studio but the show must go on, and so a small but intrepid band of employees manages to create the story's dozens of characters and scenes using just their voices and some everyday household items for sound effects.
Frank Capra's classic story asks us to take stock of what we hold dear, and demands that that we examine our lives and our priorities. It reminds us that belief in family, in friendship, and in people, is not misplaced, no matter how bad things get. It allows us to trust that somehow good will out, and that patience and fortitude are worthy and abiding virtues.
"You're guaranteed to walk out with a smile; the feel-good Christmas spirit rings true in this production where a community, big or small, in a town or the radio station, comes together to help out a friend in need." --The Elm, Washington College, Chestertown, MD
"Familiar and new all at the same time... This show is not to be missed!" --Mountain Xpress, Asheville, NC
The cast includes Columbus Academy alumna Blythe Coons, Tony Larkin, Lauren Kriel, and Alan Law. It is directed by Charlie Flynn-McIver and adapted by Willie Repoley.
Discounted tickets are available to students and to Columbus Academy faculty, staff, alumni/ae, and families.
This special performance is one night only: December 16th 2014, at 7:30 PM.
