“I’ll honor Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all the year. I’ll live in the past, present and the future.”
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, gather ’round your radios for a night of pure holiday magic! Broadcasting live from the WBFR studios in the heart of 1940s New York City, we are thrilled to present A Christmas Carol: A Live Radio Play!
Tonight, all ten of our talented actors will dazzle you as they bring Charles Dickens’ unforgettable tale to life, performing for both you, our live studio audience, and our listeners from coast to coast. These performers will take on over 40 different roles, transforming themselves with every word to capture the wonder, the chills, and the heart of this timeless Christmas classic!
Join us on Ebenezer Scrooge’s ghostly journey through Christmas past, present, and future, in a show that promises to warm your heart and fill your home with the true spirit of the season. Whether you’re a longtime fan or hearing this story for the first time, this is the holiday event you’ve been waiting for!
And of course, tonight’s broadcast is brought to you by our generous sponsors, Phipps Department Store—where holiday dreams come true—and Hippensteel Haberdashery, outfitting gentlemen in fine fashion since 1895.
And now, without further ado, WBFR proudly presents another Live Radio Play A Christmas Carol!
