Om Podcasten

Porchlight Music Theatre presents: "The Classic Musicals from the Golden Age of Radio." Here, host Michael Weber will introduce you to some of the great American musicals as they were originally presented on the airwaves. Performed live in front of a studio audience near the years the productions played on stage or were adapted as movies, you'll visit an era when Broadway was the central source for the launch of popular music and when stage actors were known by name across the land.
