About Main Stage
November 2023
Share the hope and humor of Frank Capra’s beloved holiday classic with Wonderful Life, a re-imagined, one-person theatrical version adapted by Helen R. Murray and Jason Lott.
Award-winning actor Christopher Willard brings this Christmas standard to brilliant life in an amazing display of physical and verbal virtuosity. Join George Bailey and the residents of Bedford Falls on a fateful Christmas Eve in 1945 when angels, alternate realities, and miracles change the way we see our place in the world.
Wonderful Life is a must-see event — inspiring, funny, poignant and (most of all) uplifting. A perfect compliment to your family holiday festivities.
Praise for this new adaptation:
“A sensationally moving masterpiece.” — DC Metro Theatre Arts
“A warm-and-fuzzy vision of trust and neighborliness in small town America.” — The Washington Post
Praise for Christopher Willard’s performance in Wonderful Life:
“Absolutely incredible!”
“A stellar performance plus a wonderful message for all!”
“It will make you laugh, it will make you cry — it will make you a better human being.”
“If you’re having trouble picking out a perfect gift for a friend — take them to see this play. If you are feeling reflective — take yourself to see this play. Just GO SEE IT!”
