Local actor Tom Birkeland returns to the stage after recovering from major back surgery. It's a Wonderful Life marks his triumphant return to the stage after facing the possibility of not being able to act again. Tom is a familiar face to theatre patrons of Puget Sound and will be portraying the wheelchair bound Mr. Potter. He didn't have to do much research for his role, because Tom now finds himself learning how to live life in a wheelchair after his surgery.
