New Poster Image: My Favorite Valentine Show

Hello America!

We are SEVEN DAYS TO AIR before the triumphant return of the Hear Again Radio Project.

Join us live in studio when we recreate two classic radio dramas from the Golden Age of Radio complete with live music, vintage commercials, foley sound effects, and our wonderful company of radio actors.

For Valentine's Day, when love is in the air, we here at the Hear Again Sound Labs are reminded of one of our most favorite series, My Favorite Husband.  It is series that first brought the remarkable Lucielle Ball into homes across America that served as the basis for her later landmark television series, I Love Lucy.

This year, rather than finding another series to pair with this delicious treat, we thought we would double the delights and present TWO episodes from the series:

Drafted (Jan 25, 1951)

Valentine's Day (Feb 11, 1949)

We also will feature some good advice from the Nation's Homemaker, Mrs Ida Bailey Allen; some songs and jingles about Jell-O, Lux Shampoo, and another 5 Minute Mystery.

Bring your best guy or gal! Don't miss it! Things are so much nicer when you're Hear Again!

Radio Drama History- Premier of THE FAT MAN

Hello America,

In keeping with our mission to bring the very best in old time radio to audiences today, from time to time we will present important radio milestones.

Today in Radio History premiered one of our favorite radio programs, THE FAT MAN.

Broadcast from studios of WJZ Newark, NJ and carried along the ABC radio network at 8:30 on  Jan 21, 1946, began the series popular detective drama based upon the characters created by Dashiell Hammett and staring J. Scott Smart in the title role. The episode was titled The Nineteenth Pearl.

In our early days here at the Hear Again Radio Project, we performed this very episode.

To get you ready for our next event, here is a small video of that performance.

Hello America,

We are still on the face book at http://www.facebook.com/HearAgainRadioProject

You can keep an eye on us there as well.

Happy Birthday, Lucy! We still love you!

Today, in 1911, a great American commedienne, Lucille Ball was born.

In recent years, we here at the Hear Again Radio project have really enjoyed discovering and performing some of Lucy's radio scripts from "My Favorite Husband".

We love Lucy.

Please take a few minutes to listen and laugh at a personal favorite: George is Drafted/Liz's baby

Enjoy!

And here is a picture of America's Sweetheart, Jenn MacMillan bringing one of Lucy's scripts to life.

Hello Again, America.

Sorry for the long absence. The brain trust of the Hear Again Radio Project have been very busy planning, and preparing for our next events, but we wanted to drop you a line to let you know some of the things we've been doing.

Today, we held an extremely successful performance and workshop in Radio Drama with the University of the Arts, Summer Theater Institute in Acting + Musical Theater. We performed some of our favorite episodes from Old Time Radio, Suspense "Plan X" and My Favorite Husband "Drafted". The show was a huge success.

Then, we led a workshop for the students, and let them take the stage and perform selections from some of our other favorite episodes. It was terrific, and I think a good time was had by all.

Up next for Hear Again Radio Project, at least for now, will be at Plays and Players when we present "The American Election Selection" featuring Fibber McGee & Molly "Election Day" and Cavalcade of America "Abe Lincoln: The War Years" November 8-10. Details are forthcoming, so stay tuned, America!
