Radio Purgatory by TheaterTHE October 7, 2010

Murder! Mayhem! Live Music! TheaterThe’s Radio Purgatory is a multi-disciplinary theatrical piece featuring the radio aesthetic of the 1930s and 1940s. A down on his luck detective Dick Flavor finds himself in purgatory and encounters a cast of archetypal radio play misfits forever frustrated by a lexicon of ONLY period vernacular. Flavor attempts to solve his last case namely his own murder but is continually thwarted by slapstick, absurdity and outrageous commercial interruptions. Is there a way out? Sex, violence, live music and product placement share his nightmare.
