Step back in time to the golden age of radio! It’s Christmas Eve, 1943, and the small WOV radio station in Newark, New Jersey, is preparing to broadcast its annual holiday production, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. But with WWII raging overseas, the show must go on despite rationing, blackouts, and a few backstage surprises.When the actor playing Scrooge suddenly disappears, the company scrambles to keep the holiday spirit alive. Between live commercials, heartfelt carols, and comic mishaps, the performers discover community, hope, and courage in uncertain times.
Filled with period songs and classic swing-era arrangements, A 1940s Radio Christmas Carol is both nostalgic and uplifting. Audiences are transported to an era when families gathered around the radio, and every voice crackled with warmth and wonder.
