Today is a good day to listen to/watch "Bad Day at Black Rock", Project Audion's latest radio drama recreation. We're going far afield with this 1959 show, because by this time in America, television had killed off the great radio movie adaptation series like "Lux Radio Theatre." In other countries like Australia, audio drama still thrived through shows like "Caltex Theatre." Caltex adapted "Bad Day at Black Rock" from the gritty, Oscar-nominated 1955 drama with Spencer Tracy, where one man takes on a dying town that harbors a dirty secret. Now Project Audion recreates it with a transcribed-live coast-to-coast cast which includes:
MACREEDY: Les Marsden
SMITH/JENKINSON: Pete Lutz
COLEY/ANNOUNCER: Tom Konkle
DOC: Dana Gonsalves
SHERIFF/CONDUCTOR 2: John Bell
PETE: Austin Hanna
HASTINGS: Gino Vianelli
LIZ: Jesirae Kesler
VOICE/SAM/CONDUCTOR 1: Larry Groebe
Pete Lutz directed, & Larry Groebe produced
