The Mysterious Old Radio Listening Society Presents “Agatha Christie NIGHT” AT CROONERS SUPPER CLUB!
Join The Mysterious Old Radio Listening Society for an Agatha Christie double-feature!
The Society presents two audio plays by the grand dame of mystery, performed in the style of an old-time radio broadcast, including vintage commercials and live sound effects.
First, “Where There’s A Will” from Suspense. An elderly widow with a weak heart is advised by her doctor to avoid undue exertion. Her loving nephew knows just the thing to help her relax: a new radio. But when his aunt tunes into the BBC, she hears a familiar voice from her past. A vintage tale of suspense based on Christie’s 1933 short story “Wireless.”
Next, “The Adventure of the Egyptian Tomb” from A Toast to Murder. Poirot pits the logic of his little grey cells against the ancient curse of an Egyptian Pharaoh. A classic Christie tale from 1924, adapted for audio by Joshua English Scrimshaw and starring Tim Uren as the great Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot.
PREVIOUS PRAISE FOR THE MYSTERIOUS OLD RADIO LISTENING SOCIETY:
“Shanan Custer, Joshua English Scrimshaw, Tim Uren, and Eric Webster have this down cold — not just the technical aspect, but the tone… Chilling as it might be to experience these tales (complete with old-school ads) alone in the dark, it’s much more fun to experience them with a crowd.” –City Pages
“An artisanal, old-school way of making entertainment… The fun is in watching these fine actors work almost exclusively with their voices … and to see them create a sepia-toned world with handmade sound effects.” – Pioneer Press
“This show is an entertaining and creepy homage to an era gone by, that of the radio drama. The creators of this show have a podcast of the same name… and their love for and knowledge of the genre is evident… There’s a reason these radio horror shows were so popular, and happily they continue to exist in some form today thanks to Ghoulish Delights.” –Cherry and Spoon
