Join familiar characters Jean Valjean, his nemesis Javert, and all of the colorful characters from Victor Hugo’s tragic story, under the direction of Pete Lutz.
David Ault returns for our penultimate week for the Summerstock 2022 season beginning our first act with Rachel Pulliam’s Sole Twin Audio and “Rope”!

Since Lux Radio Theatre and Screen Guild Playhouse and other classic American radio series were now gone from the airwaves, THIS show was created in Australia – for the series “Caltex Theatre”.It’s a gritty hour well-spent for the first Act of Summerstock and notice United Artist regulars Pete Lutz pulling double-duty directing as well and the incredible John Bell. Tom Konkle from Mindstream Players returns as a steady player!
After our intermission, the amazingly talented Tom Konkle with his Mindstream Players bring us all new laughs with the adventurous of old with “The Reasonably Amazing Adventures of Flash Gordon #5” and “The Hairy Handed Hitchhiker”!
David Ault brings us the second half of our Sonic Summerstock 13 season with the incredible John Barber and Reimagined Radio‘s “The Lone-Green Challenge Tribute” in which they feature three uniquely connected radio drama series, The Lone Ranger, The Green Hornet, and The Challenge of the Yukon. Produced by George Trendle, owner of WXYZ radio, and written by Fran Striker, The Lone Ranger, The Green Hornet, and The Challenge of the Yukon are each examples of pioneering radio storytelling!
