It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play is based on the classic holiday movie with a clever twist thrown in: the story is staged as a live radio broadcast. Actors portray numerous characters, and sound effects are done through Foley artists. It’s a Wonderful Life is about the life of George Bailey, a generous and well-meaning man who has become too downcast and tired to continue living. It will take help from a lovable angel to show George what life would be like if he wasn’t born for George to have a change of heart and understand the true spirit of the holidays.
Note: Producers recommend a cast of five to portray all of the different characters, but this number can be greatly expanded to accommodate larger casts as the play has 25+ characters. A separate group of singers are sometimes cast for the commercial breaks.
