Theater Anonymous Presents It's A Wonderful Life

Brought to you by The 14/48 Projects
Saturday, December 10, 2022
Doors open at 6:00pm, showtime at 8:00pm
Directed by Charlotte Peters with assistance from Shawn Belyea
The Cornish Playhouse
This show will be ASL Interpreted

The premise of Theater Anonymous is simple. Nobody knows the cast, not even the cast. Approximately 30 actors have been selected through an invitation process and each are rehearsing one-on-one with the directors, never meeting their fellow actors. Actors must take an oath of secrecy and are allowed to tell only one other person on earth that they are participating. Who will be the next George Bailey? Who will play Mary? Potter? Clarence? Nobody knows, and that's the fun of it.

This year we are finally back in person at The Cornish Playhouse in Seattle Center. Doors will open at 6:00pm so you can enjoy drinks, visits with Santa, cookie-decorating and more! After the show, don't forget to take part in our Crockpot Grotto and our Snowball Fight! We've been waiting three years for this!
