The Players present “It’s A Wonderful Life … a Live Radio Play” by Joe Landry and directed by Donna Stobie. This classic story is brought to captivating life as a1940s radio broadcast. With the help of an ensemble that brings dozens of memorable characters to the stage, the story is about the idealistic George Bailey as he considers ending his life one fateful Christmas Eve… until he is saved by divine intervention.
The production will use 5-11 actors, depending on talent. Versatility is key because all actors play several characters of various types and ages. There are two commercial breaks inspired by those of the period.
Roles:
Freddie Filmore (The actor playing The Announcer, 13 others)
Harry “Jazzbo” Heywood (The actor playing Clarence , 11 others)
Lana Sherwood (The actor playing Violet, Rose Bailey, 8 others)
Jake Laurents (The actor playing George Bailey, young and adult)
Sally Applewhite (The actor playing Mary Hatch, young and adult)
The script also calls for a live sound effects person (male or female).
With a successful play comes a talented crew. We are also looking for an stage manager, light and sound technician, and costumer.
