WCP Theatre Company follow their sell out version of ‘The vicar of Dibley’ with another heavenly production.
‘Every time a bell rings, an angel gets their wings’
Words that are instantly recognisable to classic movie buffs- and now a cast of local performers of all ages bring Frank Capra’s celluloid masterpiece, which according to Time magazine:
‘has overtaken every other Christmas fable (including A Christmas Carol and The Grinch) as the story of the season’...
vividly to life on the Plymouth stage.
A ‘magical stage adaptation (that) offers surprises while being truthful to the narrative’ (York Press)
we'll tell the witty, relatable and moving tale of George Bailey, who learns (with a little divine help) on Christmas Eve, how wonderful the gift of life truly is.
A story that is every bit as relevant, uplifting and inspirational as it was when the film was originally released 80 years ago- we celebrate its anniversary by bringing its eternal message of finding hope even in the darkest of hours, a story that has actually been prescribed for patients with depression, to the Plymouth stage for the first time.
If you've never seen the film this is your chance to discover a literally life changing story- if you're already a fan its a chance to join together with like minded enthusiasts to experience it LIVE on stage- and celebrate the anniversary of what for many is not just the greatest seasonal film of all time but the greatest film of all time- period!
