STAC gets spooky to usher in Halloween season

Auburn State Theatre's State Theatre Acting Company (STAC) presents Spooky Golden Age Radio at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11, at First Congregational Church of Auburn, 710 Auburn Ravine Road. Get a jump on your Halloween season with STAC's last radio show of their outdoor season, three spine-tingling episodes sure to give the audience chills. Relive or experience for the first time the most beloved and iconic radio shows from the 1940s and '50s. STAC's Golden Age Radio Theatre features talented actors, dynamic soundscapes from a live Foley (sound effects) artist and engaging narratives that will transport you to a bygone era. This spooky show features two episodes by the master of suspense, Ray Bradbury: · The Whole Town's Sleeping: Young women are being strangled by a serial killer in this small town. But does that stop Lavinia from walking home alone from the movies? · Marionettes: Two men with troublesome wives look for help to get out of their marital responsibilities. · A Date with Judy returns with Judy and her sorority using a haunted house to initiate new members. Is it haunted? Zombies? Bring your chairs, a picnic and enjoy. The venue is outside in the church parking lot as weather allows. In case of poor weather, the event will move into the church's Overmiller Hall. This event is free to all and donations are gratefully accepted. Auburn State Theatre Concessions – water, cookies and fresh bagged popcorn – will be available by donation. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.
