A Christmas Carol (Radio Spirits Version - Dramatized) Details
Orson Welles' dramatic anthology series Mercury Theatre on the Air, infamous for its Halloween broadcast of The War of the Worlds, found a sponsor and became Campbell Playhouse in December 1938. The program continued to feature the charismatic and fiery Welles as both a host and an actor. The great Lionel Barrymore portrayed Ebenezer Scrooge in Campbell Playhouse's annual performance of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.
Reviews
We usually read the book on Christmas Eve but have been driving a lot lately so we thought we would use an audible book. It was really enjoyable and great to hear an old radio broadcast. It should be noted that the reading is abridged, but still a fun way to listen to it on a long drive.
