The production transposes the television classic to the theater by staging the story as if it were a 1940s live radio broadcast in front of a studio audience. Five actors perform the voices of dozens of characters while a sound man helps create the atmosphere.
As in the film, George Bailey must learn that “no man is a failure who has friends” (and a little divine intervention).
