Coquitlam’s Erin Palm is reprising her role as Mary Hatch Bailey in It’s a Wonderful Life.

Patrick Street Productions, which last year mounted the musical at the Gateway Theatre in Richmond, will bring the show to the Anvil Centre Theatre (777 Columbia St., New Westminster) from Dec. 19 to Jan. 5; opening night is Dec. 21.

Based on the screenplay by Frank Capra with musical adaptation by Peter Jorgensen — and arrangements and orchestrations by Nico Rhodes — It’s a Wonderful Life tells the story of George Bailey (played by Nick Fontaine), the owner of the Bailey Building and Loan who is on the verge of a breakdown when an angel intervenes.

Palm’s father-in-law, Stephen Aberle, portrays the character Peter Bailey and a sheriff.

Tickets start at $29 (or $24 for previews on Dec. 19 and 20). There are no performances on Dec. 24, 25 and 30 and Jan. 1.
