À propos de cet audio

"The Magnificent Montague" was a classic American radio comedy series that aired on NBC from 1950 to 1951.Here's a breakdown of what made it notable:
  • Plot: The show centered around Edwin Montague, a pompous and arrogant Shakespearean actor, played by Monty Woolley, who, due to hard times, was forced to take a job in radio. Specifically, he became the titular character, "Uncle Goodheart," in a sappy afternoon serial. The humor came from his dramatic flair clashing hilariously with the realities of modern showbiz and his interactions with his family and friends.
  • Creator: The series was created, written, and directed by Nat Hiken, who later became famous for his television sitcoms like "The Phil Silvers Show" (Sgt. Bilko) and "Car 54, Where Are You?".
  • Cast: Besides Monty Woolley as Edwin Montague, the show featured a talented supporting cast including Anne Seymour as his wife, Lily, and Pert Kelton (who later gained fame in "The Honeymooners"). Art Carney also made recurring appearances.
  • Legacy: Although it only ran for about a year, "The Magnificent Montague" is considered a witty and insightful look at the world of show business, and Monty Woolley's portrayal of the title character made him a memorable figure in radio history.
