SBCC Theatre Arts Department presents a Student Showcase production of It’s a Wonderful Life, A Live Radio Play by Joe Landry, Nov. 8-18, in the Jurkowitz Theatre on SBCC’s West Campus.

Directed by Katie Laris, the students will perform the beloved holiday classic as it comes to life as a live 1940’s radio broadcast. 

With the help of an ensemble that brings a few dozen characters to the stage, the story of idealistic George Bailey unfolds as he considers ending his life one fateful Christmas Eve.
