The Sold-Out Holiday Hit Returns
The beloved Christmas classic returns to Studio Tenn in a magical theatrical experience unlike any other. On the stage of the Turner Theater, five actors recreate the entire story of George Bailey as a 1940s live radio broadcast, using vintage microphones, live sound effects, and music to bring the town of Bedford Falls to life right before your eyes. You’ll step back in time to Christmas Eve 1943, as the performers create every character and every moment of this heartwarming story live on stage.
This special return production features the entire original Studio Tenn cast that made the show a sold-out hit, bringing back all the heart, humor, and nostalgia audiences fell in love with the first time. As George Bailey discovers the true meaning of life, this timeless story reminds us that the greatest gifts at Christmas are love, family, and that no man is a failure who has friends.
It’s a nostalgic celebration of the season and the perfect way to make memories with the whole family.
And the magic doesn’t stop at the theatre. Make a full day of it at The Factory at Franklin, where It’s a Wonderful Life takes center stage. With over fifteen restaurants, more than twenty shops, free parking, and Studio Tenn right at the heart of it all, every visit is a chance to create memories together. Enjoy a meal, do a little holiday shopping, and settle in for an unforgettable afternoon or evening of live theatre, all in one place.
Gather your friends and family and make it a celebration. Groups of eight or more save twenty-five percent, so bring the whole crew along. But don’t wait, because our holiday shows sell out every year.
It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play is showing December 3rd – 20th at The Factory at Franklin. Get your tickets today at studiotenn.com.
