Great Bend Community Theatre will present a holiday classic with a twist: "It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play." The show opens this week at the Crest Theater, 1905 Lakin Ave. Curtain time will be at 8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and at 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 4. Director Sally O’Connor said the play by Joe Landry is essentially a remake of Frank Capra’s beloved Christmas movie, but it’s done as a live radio broadcast in the 1940s.
