It's a Wonderful Production

​It's a Wonderful Life - a Live Radio Play concluded its run on December 9, 2018 to a string of appreciative audiences. This remake of Frank Capra's holiday classic took to the stage as a live 1940s radio play utilizing period costuming by our very own master costumer Bernice Myllyniemi and live, on-stage sound effects by Foley artist, Tom Szalay. The talented cast of five (Jeff Smith, Keren Hawett, Bertie Barens, Vance Potter and Curtis Boomhower) brought over 20 characters to life through an amazing range of voice characterizations. Ritchie Kendrick kept thing moving on schedule as stage manger. It's a Wonderful Live was directed by Trevor Leigh.

"When literary reviewer Paul and his wife Nora invite a homeless man, Dwain, into their home for Christmas dinner, they don't expect to be so charmed by him -- or that his journal will be the incredible literary masterpiece that it is. But can Dwain, whose art thrives in anonymity, be convinced to give up the only life he's known for such comforts as sleeping indoors?" 


Jim Holt's Sleeping Indoors completed its Osoyoos run on May 7 to a standing ovation and glowing praise from audience members!
