Podcast Link To A Star Is Born Show By Arts Radio Network

starisborn_sliderArts Radio Network kicked off its series of live radio play versions of iconic movies with a one-night production of A Star Is Born on Aug. 15 on the stage of the host, The Theatre at Arts Garage in Delray Beach.

The plays are meant to recreate the experience of an audience sitting in on the live broadcast of a drama written for radio complete with a cast playing multiple parts, classic period commercials and copious sound effects created live. The actors read off scripts and drop the spent pages to the floor of the “radio station” erected on just as their predecessors did on radio during the 1930s and 1940s,

The show was directed by Arts Garage Artistic Director Lou Tyrrell. All four shows in the series this season are being produced by John Watts, executive director of Arts Radio Network.com, an all-podcast website covering South Florida’s arts community. (Full disclosure: Florida Theater On Stage participates in creating some of those podcasts and posts them on this site.)
