IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE!

A bitterly cold Christmas Eve. Down in the basement of Jermyn Street Theatre FM, six actors gather round the microphone and a piano for a live radio broadcast. The ON AIR sign flashes red. We’re whisked away to Upstate New York where George Bailey stands on a bridge, ready to jump. Enter unlikely hero Clarence Odbody. Can this second-class angel convince George that life is worth living and finally earn his wings?

Adapted from Frank Capra’s cherished film, this inventive new production transforms Jermyn Street Theatre into a 1940s radio studio. A troupe of multi-roling actors will conjure an entire world with the magic of sound via ingenious stagecraft, unforgettable performances and a flurry of theatrical magic. Jessica Lazar (Outlying Islands, ★★★★ Broadway World) returns to direct a wildly charming festive treat.
