September 22 & 23, 2014
The Sherman Playhouse is seeking a cast of 7 men and 3 women (ages 17 and up) for its December production of the Holiday classic, IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE, by Philip Grecian.
Inspired by the classic American film, IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE: A LIVE RADIO PLAY is performed as a 1940s live radio broadcast in front of a studio audience. Ten actors perform the dozens of characters as well as producing sound effects. This radio play adaptation was originally mounted at theStamford Center for the Arts in 1996, and has been performed there since with great success. Through word of mouth alone, productions have since taken place around the country, including the noted Chicago premiere at the American Theatre Company.
IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE: A LIVE RADIO PLAY is under the direction of Robin Frome of New Milford.
Auditions are Monday and Tuesday, September 22 and 23, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at The Sherman Playhouse, 5 Route 39 North (next to the fire station), in Sherman, CT.
Actors will be playing multiple characters for a live radio play setting and will be reading from the script during auditions. The script follows the film version very closely. All roles are available and both professionals and amateurs are welcome. No appointments are necessary. For more details on the auditions, visit
