WILMINGTON — Looking for the holiday spirit much like protagonist George Bailey in the iconic Frank Capra classic “It’s a Wonderful Life”?
Big Dawg Productions can be of help come Dec. 12 when it opens at Thalian Hall’s Ruth and Bucky Stein Theater, “It’s a Wonderful Life: The Radio Play.”
Taking place Thursday through Sunday through Dec. 22, the show comes to live via actors taking on the characters in a “live” 1940’s radio broadcast. The theater audience becomes part of the live studio audience as five actors — Randy Davis, Fracaswell Hyman, Brett Sicola, Chloe Belle Mason, and Anna Gamel Hubor — go through the ins and outs of Bedford Falls and all of its various neighbors. Each will perform around 15 characters, completing the show with live sound effects.
What won’t change is the warmth evoked from the classic tale, as George Bailey faces a life-changing decision on Christmas Eve and finds the meaning of life and hope, while also understanding the effect he has on others.
