Seattle theater troupe
revives radio classics
Good evening. Mr. and Mrs. America
and all the ships at sea. . .Ah. there's
good news... The Hult Center returns
to those thrilling days of yesteryear
Sunday night, when the Seattle-based
Bathhouse Theatre pays tribute to the
Golden Age of Radio in "The Big
Broadcast."
"Broadcast” is a rollicking musical
chronicle of American radio from 1920,
when KDKA of Pittsburgh became the
country's first commercial broad
casting station; to 1950, when the in
creasing popularity of television
hastened radio’s decline.
Members of the Bathhouse Theatre
portray such radio luminaries as Billie
Holliday. Jack Benny. Bing Crosby and
Ed “Texaco Fire Chief' Wynn. Popular
dramatic and comedic characters, such
as The Shadow, Fibber McGee and
Molly and lack Armstrong, become
flesh and blood on stage. Always true
to the medium, the troupe accents the
production with classic radio
commercials.
News bulletins take the audience to
Pearl Harbor. V-J Day, the sinking of
the Titanic and the liberation of
Buchenwald. An actor portraying CBS
newscaster Edward R. Murrow re
enacts Murrow's famous wartime
Christmas broadcast from London.
“The Big Broadcast” takes the air —
oops, stage — at the Hull Center at 8.
Tickets are $4.50, $5.50 and $6.50,
with student discounts available.
Tickets are available at the EMU Main
Desk, the Hult Center box office and all
Hult Center ticket outlets. For more in
formation call 687-5000.
