Radio Theater - Town Hall Theatre

If you have been missing the Angry Reynolds (Randy Anger and Sarah Reynolds) Radio Theatre productions at Town Hall then Stop, Learn and Listen, there are more to come and they are a fun-filled revival of that wonderful form of entertainment that we used to know as “Radio Theater”. However, these shows are performed live in front of you (the audience) in the Town Hall Theatre in Lafayette. Last week a superb cast of well known local actors performed these classic shows from the 1940’s, “All About Eve” and “Baby Snooks and Daddy”.

Actors Cynthia Myers, Alan Cameron, John and Marcia Hetzler, Tina Walsch, Sarah Reynolds, Randy Anger ans Scott Alexander delivered a terrific show that brought back a ton of memories. Next week’s production, is a special tribute to a couple of famous comedians in a show that never actually was produced on radio, Flywheel, Shyster and Flywheel. Written for Groucho and Chico Marx, this show’s entire script, in fact an entire series of scripts have been re-discovered and will be presented for the first time on the Radio Theatre broadcasts in Town Hall on April 10th at 8 p.m.. This show will present Jerry Motta and Mike Reynolds as Groucho and Chico. You will also be treated to another episode of “The Bickersons” , with Randy Anger and Sarah Andrews Reynolds as the Bickersons. In addition, the very talented Tina Walsch will be performing a radio monologue called The Waltz. Then, on April 24th, the company will present the second episode of Flywheel, Shyster & Flywheel and in addition, Sherlock Holmes and the Musgrave Ritual, starring Mike Reynolds, John Hetzler, Randy Anger, Tina Walsch, Gary Little, Harold Manishas and concert violinist, Ethan Filner. This evenings productions will be rounded out with the classic mystery thriller, “Sorry, Wrong Number”, starring Sarah Andrews Reynolds.
