United Players is in its 65th year located in the heart of Jericho Beach. United Players programs five shows a year. This year the beautiful Christmas classic: It's a Wonderful LIfe: On the Air by Peter Church is being presented. This piece is set in a Radio Studio in the 1940's. The audience gets a first hand peek at a group of actors singing jingles, dancing the charleston and performing It's a Wonderful Life as it would have been in the 1940's - including the foley/sound engineer creating all the sounds and magic for the show. It's a joyous, magical and witty production. A beautiful show for the Christmas holidays.
