Description

Claudia
Volume 13

Since the inception of the soap opera on radio, various things have been part and parcel of that genre; melodrama, tear jerking storylines, scandal and rumor, and enough deceit to fill a bathtub. In 1947, however, a new soap opera debuted, Claudia.

Lacking many of the characteristics of a traditional soap opera, Claudia didn’t offer the anguish and heartbreak that typified such long-running soaps as “Valiant Lady,” “Backstage Wife,” and “Ma Perkins”. But the very elements it was lacking quickly became its strengths: with very few of the “tune in tomorrow” hooks that most soaps used to lure listeners back the next day, people returning to Claudia instead came back for the interesting, fully developed characters, the light-hearted banter between them, and the familiarity of their day-to-day situations.

Another fantastic aspect of Claudia was that in its episodic format of 15 minute episodes played daily, fans not only got a little dose of this wonderful program on a regular basis, but it was presented in such a fashion that the characters grew and developed over the show’s eighteenth month run. This is especially true of the title character, Claudia.

This 13th Volume of Claudia from Radio Archives presents one of the gems of Classic Radio in the best audio quality possible and clearly shows how well a show can withstand the passage of time on so many levels. Claudia, Volume 13 is as much entertainment for today’s listeners as it was for those who first heard it in the 1940s. And it’s available now from Radio Archives!
