Today is a good day to listen to Bad Day at Black Rock, Project Audion's latest radio drama recreation. We're going far afield with this 1959 show, because by this time in America, television had killed off the great radio movie adaptation series like "Lux Radio Theatre." In other countries like Australia, radio drama still thrived through shows like Caltex Theatre. They adapted Bad Day at Black Rock from the gritty, Oscar-nominated 1955 drama with Spencer Tracy, where one man takes on a dying town that harbors a dirty secret. Now Project Audion recreates it with a transcribed-live coast-to-coast cast which includes:
MACREEDY: Les Marsden (CA)
SMITH/JENKINSON: Pete Lutz (TX)
COLEY/ANNOUNCER: Tom Konkle (CA)
DOC: Dana Gonsalves (TX)
SHERIFF/CONDUCTOR 2: John Bell (AL)
PETE: Austin Hanna (TX)
HASTINGS: Gino Vianelli (CA)
