1940s Radio Hour
by Walton Jones
Directed by Laura Bidgood
December 3 - 19, 2010
Join The Mutual Manhattan Variety Cavalcade from the Hotel Astor's Algonquin Room on December 21, 1942! The spirit of that bygone era when the world was at war and pop music meant "Strike Up the Band" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" are captured as a harassed producer copes with a drunk lead singer, the delivery boy who wants a chance in front of the microphone, the second banana who dreams of singing a ballad, and the trumpet playing sound effects man who chooses a fighter plane over Glenn Miller.
