Radiotheatre's KING KONG at St.John's Sanctuary

Now in its 19th season in NYC, critically-acclaimed, multi-award winning Radiotheatre presents the greatest adventure tale of all time, KING KONG, live on stage! In 2006, Radiotheatre was the first theater group to perform the original version of KING KONG. Only in its unique presentation can they stay true to the tale's historical and cultural importance, as well as, to the influence which the 1933 film has had on cinema history. Like Beauty and the Beast, it's a tale as old as time. But, as a product of 20th Century Hollywood...it's about an independent film producer during the Great Depression who sails to prehistoric Skull Island to find a new subject for his next motion picture. Instead, he and his crew encounter a legendary 60 ft. gorilla, vicious dinosaurs and an unfriendly native tribe. With him is a beautiful starlet hoping to become world famous! When both Beauty and the Beast do open on the stage to a packed Radio City Music Hall, well, all Hell breaks loose and...Even if you know the story by heart, you've never experienced it like this. Please join us for a rousing adventure complete with great cast, award winning sound design, fabulous projections and original orchestral score...just bring your imaginations!
