            It’s A Wonderful Life centers around the character of George Bailey played by Josh Gray.  Christmas Eve 1946 finds the character of George in a deep state of depression, lingering on suicidal.  Prayers for George are heard by the angels, prompting the character of Clarence Odbody, played by Kevin X. McNamara to arrive to earth to save him. This powerful, yet truly holiday classic, poses the age old question, what would the world be like if you hadn’t been born and never existed?  George is confronted with this question head on, and learns the error of even  questioning it at all.  George is forced to witness all the intrical facets of the lives he has affected, and is awakened to discover how much darker of a world it would have been without him in it.  This work graciously makes one aware of the importance of life, and each action one takes to make a mark in the world.  A truly beautiful experience for the holiday
 season, and for anytime of year to remind us all to appreciate every moment we encounter together.
