This Wonderful Life
with Jeremy Kendall
Paramount Hudson Valley Theater
1008 Brown Street
Peekskill, NY   See Map
This Wonderful Life is a one-man play beautifully acted by Jeremy Kendall. Based on the iconic holiday favorite film, “It’s a Wonderful Life”, the production brings to life over 32 familiar people in an amazing display of physical and verbal virtuosity. Kendall portrays the Jimmy Stewart-inspired George Bailey, and the whole cast of loveable characters from Bedford Falls, including Clarence the Angel, Mary, Zuzu, and all the townsfolk who rely on him to save them from the greedy Mr. Potter. Like the film, the play centers around the character of George, a man who has given up his dreams in order to help others, and whose imminent suicide on Christmas Eve brings about the intervention of his guardian angel, Clarence. Clarence shows George all the lives he has touched and how different life in his community of Bedford Falls would be had he never been born. Jeremy’s 75 minute tour-de-force is at once inspiring, funny, poignant, and most of all, uplifting.

Join THE OTHER BAND for a night of dance and party rock n roll as we make a return appearance at Bailey's Smoke House! By popular request, we are bringing the big Rock & Roll Dance Party back to this great club. Come for the awesome food and drink, and stay for the Rock and Roll Party! We hope you will join us as we heat up the place and keep the hot tunes rollin' all night.
