Dimestore Radio Theater: Our Groundhog Day Special!

WFMU Playlist & Interactive Live Chat (The Digital Salon)

Another holiday means another round of episodes from the Lux Radio Theater and The CBS Radio Mastery Theater, to offer you two different ways to spend the day.

First, we hear a version of, Mother Wore Tights, a romance set against the world of vaudeville performers. Betty Grable & Dan Dailey recreate their on-screen roles, in this radio romance told in flashbacks to a time when two-a-day performers were on the move, looking for work… and possibly more. .

Next, we dive back into the CBS Radio Mystery Theater, with a story called A Ghostly Game of Death. A particularly haunted house – with an adulterous and murderous past – can’t be demolished to make way for something safer, until the ghosts have been exorcised. Two paranormal investigators decide to spend the night in the house… to find they may have signed up for more than they bargained for.

Enjoy!
