"It's A Wonderful Life" Cast Party at AREA 51. "It's A Wonderful Party!"

The cast and crew from Paz Naz's Cornerstone Theater Group gathered at AREA 51 for their cast party and enjoyed a little holiday fare, Italian style. Erica Nocita put on a beautiful buffet including some of her homemade desserts to honor the group for their hard work and great performances. With six performances over two weekends in the middle of the Christmas season; it was a trying schedule to say the least. And that didn't include all the rehearsals leading up to the performance nights. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication in putting on this classic piece of theater. It was "Wonderful!"


It didn't take long for everyone to dig into some
of Erica Nocita's homemade lasagna rolls and
meatballs.



And...a little of E's famous carrot cake!

...signed by cast and crew.

Lynn Christy, director and Santa's helper.



Mark Pearson...really of Jack of all trades did
a great job as always filling in all the spots behind
the scenes. Awesome job, Mark!

Lance Orion, who played the leading role of
George Bailey, enjoying a gift from Lynn.

Michael Nozzi (Clarence, the Angel) receiving his
own bell..."every time a bell rings and Angel gets
it's wings."

Lynn's son Josh getting a surprise gift from mom.
Josh, who's in the Marine Corp, had just returned
home from a tour in Afghanistan. Merry Christmas,
Lynn!

A little "friendly" competition...right, Lance?

Jackie, Lynn and Y'Dhanna.

...and the winner is...

Jackie Zane! Jackie is presented with a framed
poster from the show for winning the competition.



Barry Schwam played the mean and heartless
"Ol' Man Potter" but he doesn't look so nasty here!
Congratulations to all the cast and crew on another
year of great performances. Well done!
