🔔 Bedford Falls is beginning to take shape at The Seeing Place!

Our stage is filling with the small details that will help bring our Christmas production, “It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play,” to life.

From vintage props, Foley sound effects, old-fashioned mics, and all the pieces of a 1940s radio studio . . . we are gearing up for a totally different type of production!

We create the story of George Bailey right in front of you as our cast moves between characters, microphones, sound effects, costume changes, music, and the world of Bedford Falls.

At its heart, though, is still the story you’ve grown to cherish for over seventy-five years. George and Mary, Violet and Clarence, and Potter and Uncle Billy come together to show us that every life matters, every person has value, and “no man is a failure who has friends.”

Tickets are on sale now for:
Thursday–Sunday, November 19–22
You can purchase tickets at https://www.seeingplace.org/tickets or call 910-548-6323.

We’d love to have you join us for a warm, nostalgic Christmas story told in a completely different way! 🔔

Some stories do not leave us when the lights fade. In 2027, we are returning to The Cathedral . . . because there is still more to see.

🔔 A new company will tell the story again as The Seeing Place proudly presents Disney's THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME.

Based on Victor Hugo’s classic novel and featuring the beloved score from Disney’s animated film alongside additional music by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a sweeping story of longing, belonging, power, mercy, and what it means to truly see another person.

🔔 Auditions are now open for singers willing to tell the story of Quasimodo, the isolated bell-ringer of Notre Dame.

AUDITIONS: January 6 and 7 by appointment (dates and times are filling up, so don't delay). You can find all of the information here: https://www.seeingplace.org/audition

SHOW DATES: March 19-21, 2027. For show information, visit: https://www.seeingplace.org/shows

Thank you to our audience for embracing "110 Stories" and supporting these stories.

When we find a work that truly touches the heart and soul, lets us produce beautiful theater, and gives our audience something to carry home with them... well... we feel fulfilled (in the words of our casemate, Bruce).

It was very special to be together this past weekend remembering the people of 9/11, the horror of that day, and the resilience of the men and women who gave us hope.

May we never forget. ❤️‍🩹

". . . the other eleven that jumped, I didn't want to see them touching the ground. So I take only the pictures looking up. I was praying, you know, in my mind, I was praying, "Please, please God. You want to take them? Take them. But don't let them touch the ground. Please give them wings." - Bolivar Arellano, NY Post Press Photographer.

Today is your last chance to experience the beauty that is "110 Stories" by Sarah Tuft. This weekend has been extraordinary... one we won't soon forget.

Only a few tickets remain for today's 3:00 performance.
We hope you experience this with us.

Tonight, on the 25th year of remembrance of September 11, we open Sarah Tuft's "110 Stories". What an honor to bring this play to The Seeing Place on 9/11.

25 years later ... their stories still remain.
Tonight, we are honored to have Jean-Michael Akey in our cast. During the attacks on 9/11 Jean was an NYPD Sergeant and spent weeks and months at "the pile" and the surrounding neighborhoods, taking care of the city and the people who call it home.

Jean's first-hand experience helped us to shape this story and we are grateful to have his voice speaking the words of Firefighter Don Casey, on our stage this weekend.
