Breaking Walls

Escape: Pass to Berlin—05/19/1950


Listen Later

Escape, CBS’s high-adventure anthology, debuted on July 7th, 1947.
During its erratic seven year run it was shifted and dropped frequently, almost always cost-sustained by the network. It developed into an experimental training ground in the late 1940s for those who’d come to dominate radio in the next decade.
Escape's one period of national sponsorship came in the summer of 1950 when the Richfield Oil Company sponsored the show. This episode is part of that run. In Pass to Berlin, written by Morton Fine and David Friedkin, an occupation G.I. is desperately trying to break through a web of death that is being spun around him.
This episode was produced and directed by William N. Robson. Featured in the cast were Stacy Harris, Peggy Webber, and Ben Wright. Paul Frees was the voice of Escape. The music was arranged by Ivan Ditmars. Tom Hanlon was the announcer.
