The Train: Foley Effects In ‘It’s A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play’

Reproducing the magic of Bedford Falls live on stage is an incredible feat, but creating the film’s iconic sounds out of everyday items for a live radio audience in our “play within a play” production is a unique, unmissable event.

In this scene, actors Mischa Hutchings and Betsy Jilka use a washboard, wire brush and train whistle to bring a train arriving at Bedford Falls to life.
