This week in Sonic Summerstock Playhouse’s first act we have a new Project Audion show from Larry Groebe. Their 32nd recreation celebrates one of the Western Heroes of childhoods gone by – Red Ryder. At one point Red Ryder, his orphaned Indian pal Little Beaver, and old companion Buckskin were more popular than the Lone Ranger. This 1949 story packs horses, cattle, rainstorms, riverboats, fires, fistfights and gunfights into just thirty minutes.
Larry Groebe and Project Audion returns with The Whistler. The Whistler is one of those great shows like “Suspense” with murderous intent in the hearts of men and women.
It’s another visit with our favourite recreation regulars- Larry Groebe and Project Audion with “”Bob and Rae”! Not too many stars from the OTR era have also hosted Saturday Night Live and a Broadway show, but comic geniuses Bob & Ray did it – and so Project Audion salutes them with a recreation of the offbeat, deadpan humor that aired on radio networks across the country for years starting in the early 1950s. John Bell in Alabama, and Pete Lutz in Texas take on the many characters created by Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding in an assemblage of sketches – both familiar and obscure – designed to replicate the kind of free flowing absurdity they did so well. You’ll recognize a couple of Mutual’s finest from our United Artists of Audio doing their amazing work!
Returning to the Sonic Summerstock stage is Larry Groebe’s Project Audion with The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. The episode from December 3, 1945 entitled “Murder in the Casbah” has been carefully re-created by a terrific Project Audion cast which includes voice actors performing from England, Hollywood, and multiple locations inbetween!
This week’s time in the Playhouse features the amazing Project Audion group with Larry Groebe. Tonight’s Project Audion recreation begins with a few bars from “I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy,” for the summer. This particular episode is not a recreation of an old script but rather an original one written by Bob Hope staff writer Robert L. Mills.
