Long, long before George Burns became the senior citizen movie star of films like "The Sunshine Boys" and "Oh God!" he was familiar to radio and television audiences across the country as the grounded half of the comedy couple Burns and Allen, with real-life wife (and vaudeville partner) Gracie Allen playing the ditzy dame of the duo. Theirs was a 25-year run on the airwaves, and now for Project Audion, Pete Lutz has penned a fresh new Burns and Allen script that recalls the best of their radio work during World War II, right down to their sponsor of the time, Swan Soap. Much like Bob Hope and Jack Benny did, we find the two of them at a naval base entertaining the troops, along with guest stars Henry Fonda and Chico Marx.
You'll be entertained by Audion's transcribed-live transcontinental cast of delicious, delirious vocal talents:
John Bell (as George) in Alabama
Mel Rose (as Gracie) in Pennsylvania
Dana Gonsalves (as Bill Goodwin) in Texas
Les Marsden (as Chico Marx) in California
Scott R. McKinley (as Henry Fonda) in New Jersey
Pete Lutz (as Mel Blanc as PO2 Ferguson) in Texas
Robert L. Mills (as Adm. Tarbottom) in California
Larry Groebe supervised the production.
