It’s a Wonderful Life

By Mary Elliot Nelson
Directed by Dominic Swarbrick

It’s A Wonderful Life is a stage adaptation of Frank Capra’s masterpiece film.

This is the saga of George Bailey, the Everyman from the small town of Bedford Falls, whose dreams of escape and adventure have been squashed by family obligations and civic duty, and whose guardian angel has to descend on Christmas Eve to save him from despair, and to remind him – by showing him what the world would have been like had he never been born – that he has had, after all, a wonderful life.
