This is the charming story of how George Bailey learns what the world would be like if he had never been born. We find in George Bailey an American everyman, with the ideals of loyalty, a strong work ethic and a love of community. When a quirky angel, looking to earn his wings, takes on the task of showing George that one man can truly make a difference in this world, we are all reminded that the love of family and friends is what is most important. This holiday classic has been delighting audiences since 1946.
Director Michael Stiles has assembled a stellar cast that is ready to bring this holiday classic to life, including Robert Allen, Charlie Perkins, Ron Tebben, Luke Sakole, Jeffrey Marcum, Winky Frances, Carole Gallant, Holly Legg, Homer Speaker, Troy Crossley, Bill Frances, Kiersten Harris, Henry Becker, John-Michael Rolnick, Sandra M. DeRocha, Kris Harger, Wade Myers, Deborah Myers, Katie Kennedy, Ed Conn, Jennifer Coleman, Annelyse Santos, Dequane Brown, Blaine Smeltzer, Tyler Panzarella, Addison Jackson, Sophie Conrad, Vincent Vettese, Dante Vettese, Adam Perry & James Wright.
