Doug Schutte returns to the stage this holiday season to bring you one man's one-man show about one man's journey to understand the meaning of his life...A live, one-man stage performance of the iconic film IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. That's right, one Schutte inhabits every role--from George Bailey to Mr. Potter, Clarence the Angel to Annie the Maid--in this hilariously touching stage adaptation that brings to life a heartwarming story about the effect one hardworking man's life has on the people around him.ARTS LOUISVILLE:"Definitely what the season calls for" "Schutte plays it all with such unabashed joy and skill""Schutte directs and performs dozens of characters for nearly an hour and a half, exhaustively running around the stage and changing persona and voice to great effect. His impersonations of Jimmy Stewart and Lionel Barrymore are particularly spot-on."LEO WEEKLY:"like a highly-energetic, charismatic friend telling you about their favorite movie.""Ill admit, I went into this show not particularly a fan of Its a Wonderful Life. Schuttes depiction of George Bailey, despite all the narrative throws at him and how it rings true today, makes me want to give the movie another chance."
