Theatre 121 is proud to present the world premiere of It’s a Wonderful Christmas Carol, an original holiday production crafted by local playwrights and inspired by two of the most cherished seasonal stories of all time. In this imaginative blend of It’s a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Carol, we return to Bedford Falls, this time to visit the infamous Mr. Potter. When three spirits appear on Christmas Eve, even this “warped, frustrated old man” must confront his past, present, and possible future. What follows is a moving, often humorous, and ultimately redemptive journey that explores whether anyone can truly change. This family-friendly production is filled with familiar characters, powerful themes of hope and forgiveness, and the joy of discovering something new in the heart of something beloved. Written by local talents Joel Bennett and Jeff Cook, It’s a Wonderful Christmas Carol is a tribute to community, compassion, and the enduring magic of holiday storytelling. Don’t miss your chance to witness this story’s very first telling, right here in your hometown.
