MONMOUTH — The Monmouth Community Players will perform “When Radio Was King” the weekend of Feb. 15-17.
The audience can expect to see an authentic old-time radio show, complete with old vaudeville comedy routines, sketches and commercials including sound effects — just like they would experience if they were in the audience of a real radio program.
The production is being directed by Josie French, of Lewiston. The cast is a mixture of vocal and comedic talent, ages ranging from 13 to 70-plus, including Andy Tolman and Elaine Katz of Readfield; Gregor Smith of Belgrade; Ginger Smith, Cindy Dunham, Amy Griswold and Peggy O’Kane of Winthrop; Josie French, Jeff Fairfield and Nancy Keneally of Lewiston; Brittany Bazinet, Dan Allard, Shane Stevens and Meredith Stevens of Greene; and David Marshall, Karen Lipovsky, Danny Gay and Megan Record of Monmouth.
The show will be performed at Cumston Hall and showtimes are 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 2 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $14 for general admission and $12 for students and seniors.
