This Wonderful Life

Jimmy Stewart he is not, but James Leaming handles himself in an amazing manner playing every single role in a one man rendition of the well-loved Frank Capra Christmas favorite, It’s A Wonderful Life. Done in a story telling fashion for those who somehow have never seen this amazing piece of iconic Christmas history, Mr. Leaming offers all the comedy, drama, emotion, heart, and romance needed to give the story its due. Truly a stage production that cannot fully be explained with mere words but rather must be experienced, This Wonderful Life is currently playing at the Laguna Beach Playhouse.

Ending its 90th season, the Laguna Playhouse has brought some amazing theatrical programming to Southern California, and more specifically to Laguna Beach. They have offered a rendition of theatre for literally every generation, age, and culture. With their on-going commitment to the fine arts and the overwhelmingly powerful difference this all too frequently ignored art can give to the world, the Laguna Playhouse gives a gift to every audience goer in reminding them that every person matters. The lives that others touch throughout their time on this earth are almost never seen in circumspect. This Wonderful Life is a splendid reminder that we all matter.

This production is playing through Christmas Eve, December 24,2011, Tuesday through Saturday evenings at 8:00 PM, Sunday evenings at 7:00 PM, and Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2:00 PM. There are even a few Thursday afternoon matinees on December 15 and 22 at 2:00 PM. The Laguna Playhouse is located at 606 Laguna Canyon Road in Laguna Beach, CA 92651, and tickets can be ordered by calling 949-497-2787, or by logging onto their website at www.lagunaplayhouse.com.
