The 1940’s Radio Show
5915 Severin Drive, La Mesa, 91942
Cost: $20 - $26
A look into yesteryear with this nostalgic view of a live radio broadcast of the “The Mutual Manhattan Variety Cavalcade”, from the Hotel Astor’s Algonquin Room on December 21, 1942. Experience the spirit of that bygone era when the world was at war and pop music meant “Strike Up the Band” and “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy”. Watch as the harassed station manager copes with a drunk lead singer, a delivery boy who wants a chance in front of the mike, the second banana cabbie who dreams of singer a ballad and the trumpet player who chooses a fighter plane over Glenn Miller.
