Historic Fort Harrison Features "Spooktacular" Old-Time Radio Show Dramatic Reading
On Saturday, 29 October, the Halloween-themed Old Time Radio Show reading of L. Ron Hubbard’s 1936 classic suspense tale “The Death Flyer” came to life in the Fort Harrison’s Crystal Ballroom courtesy of the East Coast Golden Age Theater. In addition to providing unique entertainment, the performance also raised donations to support “Toys for Tots” for underprivileged children in the Tampa Bay area.
Clearwater, FL, November 04, 2016 --(PR.com)-- The reading included sound effects, reminiscent of an old time radio show. The dramatic reading cast consisted of Tampa Bay residents: Colin Taufer, Nick Koenig, Josh Greenburg, Somali Rose, narrator/producer Joanie Sigal and Director Kathy Sweigart.
The director of a travel club brought members of her group and she said, “The event exceeded all expectations. The readers made the plot come alive. It was a day we shall be talking about for some time to come.”
“The theater was founded in 2011 with the purpose of encouraging reading by doing dramatic readings of fiction short stories written by Mr. Hubbard in the 30s and 40s,” said Joanie Sigal, the theater’s producer. “Since then we have performed for thousands of school children and adults.”
While most of their performances have been in Florida; the theater has also performed at Books-a-Million in Bangor Maine, Columbia University in NYC and for the Boys & Girls Club in Harlingen, TX.
