It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play


Provision Theater Artistic Director Timothy Gregory will direct this ensemble of local
actors featuring all the well-known, and some not so well known, characters of the
iconic town of Bedford Falls. The performers will also help in the creation of a full range
of live, playful sound effects and original music that will lift up the show.
“It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play is our first holiday celebration of family, friends
and community in nearly 7 years,” artistic director Timothy Gregory said. “I can’t wait to
share this heartwarming tale of hope with audiences in Northwest Indiana, Chicagoland
and beyond.
Hailed as “magical” by The Boston Globe and “fresh and inventive” by the Chicago Sun-
Times, It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play transposes the cinematic classic (and
holiday television tradition) to the theater by staging the story as if it was a live radio
broadcast in front of a studio audience. Five actors perform the voices of dozens of
characters while creating foley sound effects. As in the movie, everyman George Bailey
must learn that “no man is a failure who has friends” (and a little divine intervention),
when he must face off against local robber baron (and all-around curmudgeon) Henry F.
Potter. “It’s a surefire reminder of what the holiday Christmas season is all about” said
Gregory.
