HOLDEN - A holiday classic is coming to the stage in Livingston Parish thanks to John Schneider Studios.

John Schneider himself appeared on News 2 at noon with details about Friday night’s stage presentation of a radio version of the 1946 Christmas masterpiece “It’s a Wonderful Life” at Camp Singing Waters in Holden.

Schneider says the family-oriented event will feature three performances with the first tonight at 6:30 p.m. Gates will open at 4:30 p.m. so that kids in attendance can enjoy clowns, face painting, carolers, dancers, food, drinks and tons more. The Saturday performances are scheduled for 1 p.m. (gates at 11 a.m.) and 6:30 p.m. Children can really get into the holiday spirit with a visit to Santa and Mrs. Claus if they haven’t checked that off of their Christmas to-do list yet. Tickets are for adults are $35.00 ($45 at gate) and kids get in for $20 ($25 at gate).
