Skyline Theatre Company Presents Benefit Readings of It's A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play 12/12

Skyline Theatre Company brings a new classic to Bergen County this holiday season with their benefit staging of It's A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play, Saturday December 12th, at 2:00pm and 7:30pm at the Fair Lawn Community Center's George Frey Center for Arts and Recreation.

This unique staging takes us to the fictitious WBFR radio station on Christmas Eve 1946. Starring only six professional actors playing all the beloved roles from the film, this is truly a new way to enjoy one of our best family stories live on stage. Frank Capra's beloved American holiday classic comes to captivating life as a 1940's radio broadcast and tells the story of the idealistic George Bailey as he considers ending his life one fateful Christmas Eve. It's A Wonderful Life is "One of the best holiday shows around...This is a fresh and inventive way of reconnecting with a classic story of love and redemption." (Mary Houlihan, Chicago Sun-Times)
