"Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?” Clarence’s poignant words to George ring just as true today as they did when “It’s a Wonderful Life” came out almost eighty years ago. Though we may not always see it, each of us play an important role in the lives of others. Your presence here, tonight, for example, means so much to the artists you are supporting and the people you are spending time with. 

“It’s a Wonderful Life” is a time honored Christmas tradition in many families, and the ORT family is thrilled to bring this holiday classic to life in such a unique way. This is our second radio show production, and for the second year in a row, we are reveling in the fun and challenge of bringing a story to the stage through sound. Thank you for sharing this season of joy with us. Thank you for touching our lives. Merry Christmas, and enjoy the show!
