PACE Youth Theatre "It's a Wonderful Life" preview by Jill Renae Hicks

In what should prove to be an entertaining and lighthearted amalgam of two classic staples of the 20th century, the story “It’s a Wonderful Life” is coming this week to the stage — as a radio show. PACE Youth Theatre Company is producing a play set up like the 1940s radio shows of old — not inlike Garrison Keillor’s “A Prairie Home Companion” — and many of the young actors involved actually are playing more than one character. Jacob Huskey, who plays George Bailey, the hero of the classic Christmas film, will stick to his own feature role throughout the duration of the show, said Artistic Director Angela Howard, who also is the play’s producer.
