WPMT #68: Wabash Avenue

If the story of this week’s WPMT premiere starring Betty Grable and Victor Mature with June Foray, too, sounds familiar, it could be that it is very similar to 1943’s movie “Coney Island” which also starred Grable. It’s an old Hollywood tradition that if the film makes money, just change the location, some of the characters’ names and tell it again!

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.
