Weekend readings of Radioland '48 feature "a cast of fun and talented actors," Nov. 1-3 at Newton Cultural Centre.
For Naked Stage Readers Theatre, Colleen McGoff Dean directs four actors in Kirsten Van Ritzen's one-act romp, advertised as an homage to screwball romantic comedies with a contemporary twist.
"It鈥檚 1948 and a radio station is about to be closed forever," explains , where show tickets are sold.
"The employees of CHLO desperately try to save their studio with a marathon broadcast of a loopy serial, as romance blossoms between a pair of na茂ve ingenues and a couple of cynical careerists."
Show times are Friday and Saturday (Nov. 1-2) at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Nov. 3 at 2 p.m.
The readings feature Dann Wilhelm (as Bennet Burton), Rhiannon McKechnie (Ruby P. Maxwell), Jacob Brand (Lewis Hockley) and Loralei Teetzen (Melody Chambers).
Naked Stage shows don鈥檛 have movement, extensive lighting, sound systems or props, and the stage is bare except for the actors seated on stools and music stands for their scripts.
