Return to the days of live radio plays — complete with sound effects — when Grosse Pointe Theatre stages Marty Bufalini’s “It’s a Wonderful Life — The Radio Show” Dec. 10 to 19 at the Parcells Middle School auditorium, 20600 Mack Ave. (at Vernier Road) in Grosse Pointe Woods.
Bufalini, a professional actor and radio personality, brought his love for old-time radio by adapting the beloved movie into a live radio production, enabling audiences to enjoy this holiday classic — about an ordinary man who discovers how he has made a positive impact on the lives of those around him — and see how old radio shows were once made.
“This is a show within a show, with the actors bringing to life the beloved characters from (the) ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ movie produced and directed by Frank Capra, starring Jimmy Stewart, Donna Reed, Lionel Barrymore and a host of other talent from that era,” Bufalini, of Grosse Pointe City, said in a press release. “Our sound effects team recreates many of the sound effects live on stage to help tell the story in this fast-moving production.”
A number of local media personalities will be making guest appearances throughout the run of the show.
In keeping with a Wayne County mask mandate for schools, all patrons must wear masks, regardless of vaccination status. Tickets are $30 and can be purchased by visiting www.gpt.org or calling (313) 881-4004.

Today is National Drink Beer Day, which means it's the perfect time to share the winners of our Wine, Dine & Craft Brews contest. We asked readers to nominate their favorites, and they overwhelmingly chose Kuhnhenn Brewing Company as their go-to spot for craft beer. Reporter Tiffany Esshaki sat down with brothers Bret and Eric Kuhnhenn at their Clinton Township taproom to find out what makes their beer so special. Congratulations are also in order for our other winners. Andiamo took the top spot in the Best Upscale Restaurant category, and Michigan By The Bottle Tasting Room won for Best Wine Establishment.
