If you have never experienced the magic of a live show at the Quogue Community Hall by The Hamptons Theatre Company, you are missing something special. Their productions are an example of what is best about community theater. Patrons usually show up early to enjoy the complimentary hot cider, hot chocolate, and sample the amazingly tasty cookies served before the show.
The Hampton Theatre Company productions always put those bright theater lights on the local talent of the east end in a most professional, polished way. Andrew Botsford who is the director of this production is confident this show will be memorable. This production meshes the story and the live cast in order to portray the way radio plays were done before television.
Watching the heartwarming story of George Bailey, a despairing building-and-loan officer in the fictional town of Bedford Falls, NY, and the guardian angel, Clarence, who is assigned to help George see the light and cherish the life he has is always rewarding.
This production of a “Wonderful Life,” includes Andrew Botsford, Rosemary Cline, Matthew ConlOn, Rebecca Edana, Terrence Fiore, Amanda Griemsmann, George A. Loizides and Roger Moley, each playing denizens of Bedford Falls and/or in-studio radio announcers. The production is directed by Andrew Botsford; lighting design by Sebastian Paczynski; sound by Seamus Naughton; and costumes by Teresa Lebrun.
This show will be presented as a Christmas Eve installment of HBFR’s weekly “Playhouse of the Air” series.
“It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play” will be performed at the Quogue Community Hall . It is located at 125 Jessup Avenue in Quogue. The shows will be on Friday, December 16 at 7; Saturday, December 17 at 2:30; and Sunday, December 18 at 2:30. Patrons are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy complimentary hot cider, hot chocolate, and cookies served before the show.
All tickets are $10, available at the Hampton Theatre Company website at hamptontheatre.org or by calling 631-653-8955.
