A beloved American holiday classic comes to captivating life on the DBFRT stage. Based on the 1946 Frank Capra film, the story of idealistic George Bailey unfolds one fateful Christmas Eve. George is the Everyman from the small town of Bedford Falls, whose childhood dreams of escape and adventure have been quashed by family obligation and civic duty. His guardian angel, Clarence, descends on Christmas Eve to save him from despair and to remind himby showing what the world would have been like had he never been bornthat his has been, after all, a wonderful life. This theatrically staged adaptation overflows with warmth, humor, and Christmas joy. Winner of the 2017/18 AriZoni Awards for Best Overall Production and Best Direction of a Play.*No performances on holidays: Thanksgiving Day (Nov 25), Christmas Eve (Dec 24) and Christmas Day (Dec 25)
