"When Radio Entertained People" Returns To Ocean County Library Toms River Branch In April

(TOMS RIVER, NJ) -- Return to the era when families gathered around the wireless set for “theater of the imagination.” The Ocean County Library Toms River Branch will host a live presentation by When Radio Entertained People (WREP) on Wednesday, April 12. WREP consists of 10 talented actors who re-create characters and scripts from radio’s “Golden Age” of the 1940s and 1950s. Michael Glenn Miller leads the cast, many of whom have performed in motion pictures, television, and professional theatre. The event begins at 7:00pm.

The troupe has performed at the Ocean County Library since forming in 2008. The entertainers’ hilarious December 7, 2022 holiday show before an enthusiastic audience heralded the return engagement. 

Attendees will be treated to a music and a trivia contest prior to the performance, which will feature episodes of The Great Gildersleeve, Ozzie and Harriet, and Flywheel, complete with sound effects.

This program is sponsored by Friends of the Ocean County Library – Toms River. 

Please register at www.theoceancountylibrary.org/events to attend this free program. For more information, visit the OCL Toms River Branch, 101 Washington Street, or call (732) 349-6200.
