Adapted from the classic American film by Fairfield native, Joe Landry, this unique take on the beloved story of George Bailey and the granting of his bleak and desperate Christmas wish by his guardian angel shifts the action from the silver screen to the WBFR radio studios on Christmas Eve 1946. Here a handful of actors are at their mics, broadcasting in front of a studio audience, performing dozens of characters, accompanied on stage by live sound effects artists.
