It has been a hectic 2 weeks for show production but we are still on schedule to present a totally awesome show on Saturday.
What do we got this year?
The Sauerkraut Singer, an ukulele, Sonny (remember him, dude), more Rinzo, Greta Garbo, and McGervold. It's all wrapped up in about 90 minutes. Nifty.
Oh and we've got a website: http://www.hcc-fargo.com/radioshow/
Remember: Saturday December 5th, 7:00 PM, 608 Main Ave

Right On Schedule
Auditions were completed last night and a tentative plan of show was created. It won't be like previous shows at least that's how it looks on paper. We will be revisiting the O. Henry story, Gift of the Magi. If you recall the story was mashed with a little of The Maltese Falcon for the 2008 2007 show entitled- A Nutcracker, My Sweet. It will certainly be revised a bit since once again we lost some precious cast members from the previous year. We'll get by. The cast this year is shaping up to be small but versatile. I am hoping to further include musical numbers and some zany sketches. I was hoping to get an accordion solo but haven't found anyone yet.
Let's rewind and remember the past few shows
2009- It's Christmas and Who Carols - husband and wife help some people they weren't expecting for Christmas
2008- It's a Wonderful Miracle on Main Street- store owner gets caught up in the commercial trappings of Christmas only to come to the end of his wits and realize his life is more important. Mash up of It's A Wonderful Life with A Miracle on 34th Street
2007- A Nutcracker, My Sweet- man gets caught up in a smuggling scheme while trying to get a gift for his wife
2006- Who Moved My Fruitcake- fruitcake salesman on the run from his past helps town celebrate Christmas even though the Yuletide festivities have been outlawed.
I am unsure of when the so called Twinkle, Twinkle Tinsel Ball show happened- was it 2005 or 2004. It is memorable because the story revolved around the explosion of the largest tinsel ball ever made and a visit from the King of Norway. It included the oft quoted line- "But the tinsel ball!" It was once of most exciting stories I ever wrote.
Is there a lost show out there? One I forgot. I think so.
2003- Christmas Treasure- people search for the so-called Magi's treasure. This sort of had an X-files bent. I count it as one the most woeful scripts I wrote.
2002- It's Christmas and Who Carols (original edition)- Shorter version of the 2009 show.
