DescriptionThe Port Washington Play Troupe is thrilled to announce that its production of "It's A Wonderful Life – A Radio Show" will be performed live at the Port Washington Public Library on December 15 and 17, 2023! This production of Frank Capra's beloved 1946 film, a holiday season classic, was adapted by Bob Nissen in the style of a radio drama, complete with live foley sound effects and musical interludes and vintage commercials. Each performance is presented free to the public. Performances take place at 7pm on Friday, December 15, and 3pm on Sunday, December 17. Reservations are highly recommended.
NoteWe are also proud to announce that the Port Washington Play Troupe was awarded the Gina Farasciano Community Theater Grant by HEARTS PW for these performances. This show has a special resonance for both the Play Troupe and the community and is dedicated to the memory of Gina Farasciano, a Port Washington native and theater lover. She performed in the Play Troupe's last stage production of the American film classic in 2019, just months before her untimely passing. Nearly a century old, the Port Washington Play Troupe is the community's oldest theater organization, presenting high-quality musicals, plays, and special musical performances. More information available at The Port Washington Play Troupe Website or on our Facebook page. We look forward to seeing you at the Port Washington Public Library in December!
