Any program in entertainment needs its own special energy, something that drives it to be the best of the best. When that special electricity comes from many different angles, then you get shows like those in Mutual Radio Theater, Volume 3.
An entry in the comeback of radio drama in the late 1970s and early 1980s, Mutual Radio Theater provided new and amazing shows five nights a week for its entire run. Written by leading names in radio, Mutual Radio Theater also sported something that every show needs to succeed. Star power.
Each night of the week, a different star hosted - Lorne Greene, Andy Griffith, Vincent Price, Cicely Tyson, and Leonard Nimoy. These stunning talents, though, were only the beginning. The shows were peopled with stars from both classic radio and modern television and movies. Names from the golden era of radio drama included John Dehner, Vic Perrin, Hans Conried, Marvin Miller, Parley Baer, Elliot Lewis, Jeff Corey, Virginia Gregg, and Lurene Tuttle. Modern entertainment lent some of its best talent as well, including Tom Bosley, Marian Ross, Lloyd Bochner, Rick Jason, Frank Campanella, Toni Tennille, Arthur Hill, and Jesse White.
Mutual Radio Theater, Volume 3 contains 20 episodes featuring legendary talent alongside up and coming stars of the early 1980s. Combined with the stellar writing talents of such greats as Arch Oboler, Mutual Radio Theater, Volume 3 is a must have for any Radio enthusiast!
