BART’S BLOG – NOVEMBER 2024

IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE
Relive the magic on HCEC-TV and WQXE Radio
throughout the Holidays!

Last year, the PAC brought the charm of live radio to the stage with our rendition of the beloved classic, IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE. This year, we’re excited to let you know that you can enjoy this heartwarming production from the comfort of your home.

Originally performed as a live radio drama, our production captured the nostalgia of the golden age of radio, where sound effects and expressive voices told the story of George Bailey, Clarence the guardian angel, and the residents of Bedford Falls.

Although you won’t be able to sit in our theatre, you can still experience the warmth and intimacy of this radio-style performance as you transport yourself back to the snowy streets of Bedford Falls. Relive the magic of this timeless story with broadcasts on HCEC-TV and WQXE Radio this Thanksgiving Eve at 6PM.

This same broadcast will also be repeated on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve at 6PM.

Once again, we’re thrilled to share this wonderful production with you. Let the story of community, love, and selflessness brighten your holiday season!
