The End of....

...Radio Theatre??

Here's the place for discussing music, plays, YouTube videos, and any other media that doesn't quite fit in the other sections of Harlequin Theatre.

The End of....

Post by AIOfan11 »

Go to this page and look at the paragraph under the description of the Shoemaker production.

Am I reading this wrong, or is all of Radio Theatre's productions done?!?! *cry*

Yes, Focus cancelled Radio Theatre back in September of last year. There will be no more new productions. I called FOTF and the lady I spoke to said that money was the reason for the cancellation. It stopped airing on my local station the first of this year. If there are any CDs of RT that you want you had better get them because they are getting very hard to find.

I did not say "on" I said "of." FOTF is a non profit organization which means that they get their operating money from people like us. If people do not donate, or order from them then more shows like Radio Theatre will disappear. Keep in mind that AIO could be next. It did say that they were re-examining ALL of its programs.

They would be selling them. It has been listed on FOTF's resourse site since December. I ordered mine from there.

Yeah, I remember finding out about that. I've been even more eager to buy Radio Theatre since then. My bro got FG 2 (from me) for Christmas.
