This Lux Radio Theatre adaptation of It’s a Wonderful Life is a heartwarming radio drama based on Frank Capra’s classic story. Condensed into about an hour, the production features rich narration, live sound effects, and expressive performances to tell the story of George Bailey—a man who, feeling overwhelmed by life’s burdens, is shown by his guardian angel how profoundly he has touched the lives of others. The radio play beautifully conveys themes of hope, community, and the power of one individual to make a difference—offering an intimate, nostalgic experience that feels both uplifting and deeply human through the magic of radio.IPR Radio Dramas feature community and campus actors, musicians, and singers who, through their live performances, transport listeners to another time—evoking memories of shared experiences and recalling an era when imagination played a central role in entertainment. Live music and sound effects help recreate the authentic atmosphere of the Golden Age of Radio.
Audience members play a vital role in the radio drama experience by engaging with the story and reacting to the emotions conveyed through sound and performance.
Attendees should be seated by 7:30 p.m. and will enjoy a special pre-show program, including a live sound effects demonstration.
Directed by Matthew Reeder. Musical direction by Jim Rhinehart. Sound effects by Leo Blackmer.
