Excellent radio theater piece for Christmas
I've previewed Quicksilver Radio Theatre's "the Blue Carbuncle" and I think it's a terrific radio theater piece for Christmas. It's compelling, fun, and the quality is first-rate in every department. It came too late for me to schedule it for this year, but I expect that it'll be the Christmas show on KUNM's Radio Theatre next year.
