Community Theatre of Howell is thrilled to announce the upcoming WCTH Radio Hour, featuring two captivating performances:

The Great Gildersleeve – “Gildy’s New Secretary”

In this episode,  Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve hires a secretary to bring order to his office, but things quickly go awry. The well-meaning but bumbling Gildy struggles to manage his new assistant, leading to a series of humorous misunderstandings and mishaps. As Gildersleeve's authority slips away, laughter ensues, showcasing his charmingly flawed approach to leadership and work-life balance in this classic radio comedy.

Let George Do It – "Lady In Distress"

Detective George Valentine is drawn into a perilous mystery when he receives a cryptic plea from a woman in danger. Following her faint clues, he uncovers a web of deception and hidden motives, racing against time to save her before it’s too late.

Performance Date: January 26, 2025 at 2:00 pm, plus a possible off-site performance to be determined.

Interested in auditioning for a future WCTH Radio Hour? There will be one more WCTH Radio Hour show this season. Auditions for the next show are March 18 and the show is April 27, 2025.

Keeping in the spirit of the Golden Age of Radio, we also feature show sponsorships! Most of America’s best loved radio serials were proudly brought to the airwaves, courtesy of their commercial sponsors. As we seek to faithfully recreate some of nostalgia’s beloved shows, we will mix in vintage commercials with sponsor commercials for local businesses, 1940’s style. We take your local Howell business back in time with us, and create an advertisement that radio land audiences will know and appreciate. Sometimes our jingle writers even come out of the woodwork!

If you are a local business that would to be a part of this experience, contact Dan Squires at dansquires@live.com for more details.
