IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE
adapted by Joey Tremblay
‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ is based on the story, ‘The Greatest Gift’ by Philip Van Doren Stern. This production is presented with the permission of The Greatest Gift Corporation.
Directed by Judy Wensel
Bells, balance sheets, and the magic of showing up.
On Christmas Eve, a tired bank clerk begins to wonder if his quiet life has made any difference at all. When a mysterious stranger grants his offhand wish to never have been born, he’s given an unexpected holiday lesson. As church bells ring and storefront lights glow, George slowly realizes the true value of community, shared responsibility, and simply being there for one another.
Philip Van Doren Stern’s 1943 short story The Greatest Gift inspired the classic Paramount Pictures film It’s a Wonderful Life. Now, Saskatchewan theatregoers can experience this endlessly resonant tale through a new, world-premiere adaptation by homegrown playwright Joey Tremblay.
Refreshed for a new generation, It’s a Wonderful Life will serve as a timeless holiday reminder that when people invest in each other, everyone’s a little richer.
