Miracle on 34th Street: A Live Radio Play Reviews
Stage and Cinema- Highly Recommended
"...If you're in need of a miracle, look no further than the Los Angeles premiere of Lance Arthur Smith's new adaptation of Miracle on 34th Street: A Live Musical Radio Play presented by Actors Co-op at the First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood. Based on the Lux Radio Theatre broadcast and the beloved 1947 film starring Maureen O'Hara, John Payne, Edmund Gwenn, and Natalie Wood, this refashion of the holiday classic, commissioned in 2016 by San Diego Musical Theatre, honors the original story as much as it reimagines it; this modern Miracle is sure to make believers out of anyone."
LA Splash- Recommended
"...Directed by Joseph Leo Bwarie with musical direction by Anthony Lucca and choreography by Anna Aimee White, MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET turns into an extravaganza of music and song as the radio characters solo, harmonize, and weave their bodies to create a melodic and very special time of year. Accompanied by a talented cast of actors who sing their hearts out, narrator/pianist Phil Crowley keeps the show upbeat and fun."
