Just returned from seeing a little theater group called the "Bread and Circus Theater Company". They performed "It's A Wonderful Life." as a live radio play. The year was 1946. The cast was all dressed in vintage clothing. They performed to microphones. Read from scripts. The actors performed multiple roles. Sound effects performed live on stage. A couple of adds from sponsers, hair cream and soap. Even had "On Air" and "Applause" signs for the audience. All and all a nice trip into the past to get the feel of what it must have been like to see a radio drama performed. If anyone gets the opportunity to see a performance from a theater group; By all means, make haste.

It was a great time. They told me they performed it last year and it was so popular they decided to do it again this year.
Such a wonderful idea, too. Thank you so much for sharing with us here.
That sounded like a great time !!
