A Christmas Carol - Broadcast 12/23 & 25

On Christmas weekend KLUV, 98.7fm in Dallas will broadcast a new recreation of "A Christmas Carol".

On Monday 12/12, the Texas Radio Theatre went to the studios of KLUV and recorded Jody Dean, Kathy Jones, Mitch Carr and many other folks at the station as they voiced the characters for their own version of this holiday classic.

This audioplay will be broadcast on December 23rd and December 25th at 8pm in Dallas on 98.7FM

KLUV is not streamed on the web / but I will ask if I can podcast it at a later date.

More details as they come in.

KLUV recording photos

These photos were taken in a small recording studio - one that's usually used by the Texas State Network for interviews. It presented interesting challenges for photo-taking... but this is what we got! These were taken on December 12th.

The Story: Sam is the boss of the Biscotti family business, a shady organization in the city. Sam is dropped off at this nightclub where he believes his annual Christmas party is about to take place. He had left all the planning to Frankie, his son. Frankie is using the opportunity to get rid of his father and take over the family business. All the plans are suddenly ‘messed up’ when Amaretta, a disoriented old lady, wanders onto the scene and changes everyone’s lives forever.

Before there was Tanto. Before the masked rider of the plains (as we know him) became emblazoned in the history and lexicon of the old West. There was a simple story about a swashbuckling solo avenger who laughed in the face of danger on the savage frontier.
