The 2009 season for the Lyceum Theatre draws to a close with IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE - A LIVE RADIO PLAY. This is a unique take on the familiar holiday film classic that's been reworked for the stage by Joe Landry; in this case as a radio dramatization. What's interesting to me is that it was quite common during the golden age of radio to adapt current movies for the airwaves, and that was actually done back in the 1940's with Frank Capra's timeless feature. So, you're essentially viewing a fictionalized version of an event that genuinely occurred at some point. And, it's a perfectly charming and delightful experience.
The Arrow Rock Lyceum Theatre proudly presents IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE: A LIVE RADIO PLAY, November 14 - 22. Author, Joe Landry, has inventively adapted Frank Capra's classic film to the stage, re-inventing it as a live 1940's radio broadcast. Set in fictional radio station, WBFR, in New York City on Christmas Eve, five savvy 'studio' actors employ their vocal talents and live radio sound effects to bring the familiar residents and environs of Bedford Falls to life.
