PROJECT AUDION 54 - THE MAN CALLED X
THE MAN CALLED "X", Episode 54 Premiered Apr 12, 2024 A spy caper always makes for a good show. Start with a suave man of mystery, sprinkle in some far-off exotic locales, and stir in some evil enemies of democracy and beautiful women. The result: James Bond? No, "The Man Called X" -- which broadcast several hundred episodes on network radio from 1944 through 1952. Unflappable British actor Herbert Marshall originally played American agent Ken Thurston, AKA the man called X. Project Audion now recreates the very first episode of "The Man Called X," from a script which has not been heard since its premiere in July 1944! The action of "The Cage of Europe" is set in wartime Lisbon (you know, where Ilsa flew off to in "Casablanca." Audion's recreation features voice actors performing live on both sides of the Atlantic for this half hour of what was described as in 1944 as a "comedy-mystery," and which eighty years later is still highly entertaining! Featuring – David Ault in England Jack Ward in Canada Laura Mirsky in New Jersey George Taylor in Tennessee Jane Beverley in New Jersey Jeff Billard in Massachusetts Caleb Fisher in Virginia Joe Mendell in England Robert Stevenson in Indiana Larry Groebe produced and directed from Texas
