Radio Ridiculous by Rich Orloff

Radio Ridiculous by Rich Orloff

Presented by Eventide Theatre Company at Gertrude Lawrence Stage inside historic Dennis Union Church

“Radio Ridiculous” is Orloff’s comic tribute to the serialized radio format of the 1930’s and 40’s featuring three self-contained segments spoofing classic radio drama from the period. “Sorry You’ve Got My Wrong Number”, a parody of radio suspense programs, “The Wacko Brothers”, a send-up reminiscent of the Marx Brothers/Abbot & Costello comedy teams, and “A Tale of Two Miserables”, a condensed classic mash-up of the works of Victor Hugo and Charles Dickens.

Orloff’s one-acts have had over 1700 productions on six of the seven continents, plus a staged reading in Antarctica. Seven of his one-acts have been published in the annual Best American Short Plays series.

“Radio Ridiculous” is to be presented as a live broadcast set in a 1940’s period radio studio, with actors playing over 70 vocal characters and a large array of studio sound effects. The cast includes Tom Crutchfield, Janet Geist-Moore, Barry Lew, Stephen Ross, Leigh Wilson, and Cleo Zani.
