"A Christmas Carol" in Your Bathrobe?
Taking a page from 1940s Orson Welles "Mercury Theater", PNT created the "Parson's Nose Radio Theater", available to all, free of charge (though donations are greatly appreciated), available on iTunes, Spotify and right here! Our finest writers -Twain, Poe, Shakespeare, Hans Andersen, O Henry, Chekhov, Dickens - are all here, with more to come. Works we should all know. Pure theater - actor, text and imagination.
