If you missed the Sycamore Street Ensemble production of “It’s a Wonderful Life” in McFarland last week, you have two more chances to see it — but this time you’ll have to journey to the Middleton Performing Arts Center (PAC), where it’s being performed at 7 p.m. on Saturday, December 12th and 2 p.m. Sunday, December 13th.
Inspired by Frank Capra’s classic American film, “It’s a Wonderful Life,” this stage version, directed by Katrina Brunner, tells the story of George Bailey’s life as a live 1940s Radio Broadcast.
Take your seat as a member of the studio audience to relive the beloved tale of regret and redemption told through insightful storytelling, familiar characters and engaging sound effects. And hang onto your seat, too, since this production features some of the Madison area’s best comic actors — and lots of other talented actors as well.
The cast for “It’s A Wonderful Life includes Michael Brunner, Leslie Esser-Reitano, Tony Reitano, Patricia Whitely, Michael Bruno, Monica Lyons, Lee Waldhart, Brian Hagen, and Patrick Fernan. Paul Cargill will perform all the live sound effects.
This weekend’s performances are co-produced with Middleton Players Theatre and feature The Angel Choir and the Middleton High School Musicians.
Tickets are $15.00 for adults, $10.00 for seniors (65+) and students, and $6.00 for children six and under and may be purchased online. A $2 per ticket refund will be given at the door for donations of two or more non-perishable food items.
The Middleton Performing Arts Center is located at 2100 Bristol Street in Middleton, a few blocks off University Avenue.
