The following announcement was provided by the Mosesian Center for the Arts:
Mosesian Center for the Arts welcomes the Post-Meridian Radio Players (PMRP) this weekend, July 26-28, to present a series of radio mysteries.
PMRP returns to Mosesian Arts with their 13th year of summer mysteries — three classics presented in the style of old-time radio dramas:
• A recreation of the Lux Radio Theater version of the mystery classic, The Thin Man, featuring Nick and Nora Charles. The script is written by George Wells and Sanford Barnett, and is adapted and directed by Jeremy Holstein.
• Gentleman thief Arsène Lupin returning in a new adventure titled The Black Pearl, with a script adapted by Michael Lin and directed by Jamie Lin.
• The feminist mystery classic Trifles by Susan Glaspell, adapted for radio drama by Phoebe Roberts and directed by Hannah Baker.
Founded in 2005, the Post-Meridian Radio Players are a group of actors, writers, FoleyFX artists, composers, sound designers, and other interested people dedicated to the preservation of radio drama, and the development of audio theater, as unique art forms. They offer live performances and studio productions of both classic tales from the Golden Age of Radio and original works by new and experienced writers, with a special emphasis on science-fiction, fantasy, and horror.
PMRP will perform in the Dinah Lane Theater on Friday and Saturday, July 26 and 27, at 7:30 PM, and on Sunday, July 28, at 2 PM. General admission tickets are available at www.mosesianarts.org and will also be available at the door.
