Radio Gals

Book, Music and Lyrics by Mike Craver (Red Clay Ramblers) and Mark Hardwick (Pump Boys and Dinettes).

RLT's production was performed in the Cantey V. Sutton Theatre, May 30-June 22, 2008

Set in the late l920s, and concerning an enterprising woman, Hazel Hunt, of Cedar Ridge, Arkansas. Upon her retirement as the town music teacher, she receives a Western Electric 500 watt radio transmitter and begins broadcasting as radio station "WGAL". What comes out over the local airwaves is a small town diary, calendar, and stream of consciousness -- sort of a Molly Bloom crossed with the Farmers' Almanac -- with generous dollops of singing and playing by Hazel's "all-girl" orchestra, "the Hazelnuts", and that lovesick flapper Gladys Fritts.

Radio Gals posterHowever, due to Hazel's habit of "channel wandering", her broadcasts are not always so local. And listeners as far away as Montreal and Manhattan can testify. Enter O. B. Abbott, Federal Radio Inspector, intent on rescuing the airwaves from gypsies like Hazel Hunt. However, Mr. Abbott soon falls prey to the blandishments of the Hazelnuts, and the Shangri-La that is Cedar Ridge. Inspector Abbott, it turns out, also has a fine tenor voice, plays a mean accordion, and in the course of things falls for the flapper...
