is bringing a holiday family favorite to life with the opening of A Wonderful Life tonight. Foster City Patch's went to the dress rehearsal to find out how the is giving the old tale a new twist.

The story of George Bailey and his wonderful life in Bedford Falls remains a timeless fable of dreams, disillusionment and the power of love. Memorable songs include One of the Lucky Ones, In a State and Christmas Gifts.

A Wonderful Life runs from Dec. 3-19, followed by Holes, Separate Tables and finally wrapping up with The Drowsy Chaperone in May. 

Tickets to all Hillbarn performances can be purchased online at http://www.hillbarntheatre.org/ or by calling the box office at 650-349-6411.
