Event Description

Radio Daze
By João Canhoto
October 11 – 27, 2007
“Great blazing thunderbolts!”
It’s 1949 and staff at a local radio station are agog with excitement. THE famous Langdon Zuber will be arriving any minute to star in tonight’s Mystery of Suspense Theatre! He’s famous alright… famously inebriated, and alone. Staff will do anything to hide the drunken star from the Station Manager and ensure the show goes on, even if they have to do it themselves! But first, they’ll have to try to sober up the talent, distract that police officer, and write a script. Many doors will slam and someone will wind up in their underpants. Don’t worry, not you.
If you liked Gateway’s tremendously popular
Lend Me A Tenor, this one’s for you!
