American Theater Company continues a Chicago holiday tradition with the 10th anniversary performance of their version of It's a Wonderful Life. ATC transforms into a 1940s radio studio to tell Capra's classic story of one man's effect on his community. Complete with audiograms and commercial breaks, audiences may be recorded live for broadcast on WBEZ Chicago Public Radio. Free milk and cookies are served after every show. Those who already know and love the film, and those who are new to this delightful story will enjoy what the Chicago Tribune calls "the one holiday show [we] relish going back to each year."

Don't park in the lot adjacent to the theater. It appears it doesn't belong to them.

Very cute play with lots of spirit. Well-sung. Fill out the audiogram and try to be funny.Written on Dec 29 2011

I wasn't sure what to expect from a radio play that you watch, but this production was riveting from beginning to end. One of the most fascinating elements to watch was the foley artist played by Rick Kubes. It was a great step back into the past and a great theatrical presentation.Written on Dec 22 2011

This was a great deal for an evenings entertainment. All the seats in this theater are great, set design and period setting was true to vintage and stage was very nice. The weak part was that the entire cast was not the best. I witnessed great actors in some lead parts such as George but the gentleman that played the angel and other parts was not as crisp in delivery. Overall an enjoyable evening and I feel the older generation would be more than pleased to watch the show. Hats off to the sound effects gent who had a lot of fun and was entertaining to watch.Written on Nov 29 2011

The show is really nicely done and the cast seems to be having a good time as well. My only suggestion would be that they slow it down a little at the beginning-if I didn't already know the dialogue I would have had a hard time following.Written on Dec 22 2011
