What I loved about the show was the way you felt transported back to 1943 as the live audience for the radio broadcast complete with an “applause” sign that lights up when it’s time to clap. You got to see how they made sound effects on air, and Mathew Szekeres did a great job as “Buzz” with all the different sounds throughout the show. Matt Yordy-Bahn was great as the host of the show keeping it all running smoothly between the telling of the Christmas Carol, songs, and advertisements. The cast seems to really enjoy getting to use different voices and accents throughout the show, and Justin Rosenberger, as “Cholly” really nailed using his voice for radio.
