Clarence, an angel in heaven, hears prayers for a man named George Bailey. George needs help. Clarence must save him—and if he does,
he’ll earn his angel’s wings.
We see George’s life: an honest kid with big dreams, but George longs to get out of Bedford Falls and travel the world. But when his father dies, George remains in Bedford Falls after all; sticks with the modest family business, always lending a hand to the hardworking townspeople; gets married to his sweetheart Mary; has a family; watches his brother Harry become a war hero.   Then, disaster: George’s uncle misplaces $8,000 of the Building and Loan’s money. George panics; it will mean bankruptcy, scandal, prison. He loses his temper, yells at Mary, insults his own kids. Out of options, he runs off—and his family prays.

He’s ready to take his own life, when the angel Clarence appears and shows George the life without him in it..... “One man’s life touches so many others,” Clarence advises, and George has a change of heart, as he decides to embrace his life with gusto!

Watch sound effects created on stage, background singers who provide holiday music, a handful of actors that dramatize all the various characters in the play, and reminisce as you enjoy this enduring and heartwarming holiday classic.
