Show Notes

This episode is the first of two recorded live in front of an audience at Open Eye Theatre, featuring special guest, Shanan Custer! We started the evening with the legendary Ethel Merman starring in "Never Follow a Banjo Act" from Suspense! In this story, Merman plays an "mature" singer hired to share the stage with a young heartthrob whose last co-star suffered an unfortunate accident. Will she meet the same fate as her predecessor? What will come of her torrid romance with a cowboy played by Paul Frees? Is this what show business is really like? Listen for yourself and find out!
