Odyssey Dance Theatre’s acclaimed holiday production It’s A Wonderful Life to be released on video!
Performances were planned for the Janet Quinney Lawson Capitol Theatre December 17th to 23rd; however, In response to the rising cases of COVID-19, Salt Lake County Mayor Jennifer Wilson and the County Health Department have closed Salt Lake County Arts & Culture venues – Abravanel Hall, Capitol Theatre, Eccles Theater, Rose Wagner Performing Arts – for public performances effective November 23 – December 31. This decision was made out of an abundance of caution to minimize the spread of COVID-19 and to protect the health and safety of the community.
But the show must go on! We will record the performances and provide a downloadable video on December 21st. Go to www.odysseydance.com and click on the Buy Video link to reserve your copy for only $40! (Offer available now through January 5, 2021.)
Conceived, Directed and Choreographed by the creator of Thriller Derryl Yeager to an original score by Sam Cardon, It’s A Wonderful Life is based on the classic holiday film. Driven by circumstance to the point of no return, George Bailey gets the chance to see the world as it would have been without him, and he realizes his ordinary life is really extraordinary.
“It has the look of a Broadway show, but the story is told through dance and the use of voice-overs very much like the film,” says Mr. Yeager. “An amazing team of artists collaborated on the production, including Sam Cardon, who wrote a moving, original score; Doug Ellis, whose fabulous scenic designs were expertly crafted by Lynn Clark at Scenic Service Specialists; and, of course, the phenomenal dancers of Odyssey Dance Theatre.”
