I saw the show Saturday afternoon (Dec. 13) and it was...WONDERFUL! I have been attending this production for the past 5 years and Saturday's performance was spot on. The acting was warm and full of energy. In fact, the actor playing George Bailey broke out in genuine tears during the performance. This is a fun and touching rendition of this classic story.

Intimate theater. Wonderful story. period costumes. Sing Christmas Carols with the actors before the show. Share milk and cookies and Emerald Nuts with the actors after the show. Visit Murphy Mrs & Son's Irish Bistro at 3905 N Lincoln Ave, it's a beautiful building with a wonderful bar and a fireplace. A well done production. You'll be glad that you went.

What a Fantastic evening! We had a great time! The 40's feel was Terrific.... The cast was warm, friendly, and astounding! They included you into the show which made it a very personal experience! I will look forward to attending it again next year!
Thanks for a Wonderful time!
