Theater at Monmouth presents This Wonderful Life Nov. 29 – Dec. 9

Theater at Monmouth’s 43rd season concludes with playwright Steve Murray’s hilariously touching adaptation of Frank Capra’s, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Brimming with hope and humor, “This Wonderful Life” reminds us of the power of perspective, friendship, and family just in time for the holiday season.

Theater at Monmouth favorite, Mike Anthony, unleashes his comedic talents for this 90-minute adventure as he recreates more than two-dozen iconic characters from the beloved film. Anthony embodies Clarence the Angel, Mary, Old Man Potter, and the rest of Bedford Falls’ finest citizens, while also serving as narrator, offering amusing commentary on George Bailey’s journey to discover that the actions of one person really can make a difference in the world.

The show is directed by TAM Producing Artistic Director Dawn McAndrews with set and lights by Jim Alexander and sound design by Rew Tippen.
