The Artist was a stunning throwback to the era of silent films, before special effects were even a twinkle in a director’s eye. Now, Moonstone Theatre Company off ers you the chance to relive the golden age of radio!

When radio was king of the living room, special agents like Dick Barton and Paul Temple ruled the airwaves. Moonstone’s very own secret agent, Carter Davies, will transport you back to a time of tantalising adventure serials, when cliffh anger endings left audiences gasping. Marvel at the exploits of the derring-do hero as he grapples with an evil villain and saves a damsel in distress, all accompanied by sound eff ects produced before your very eyes!

With any live broadcast, there’s always an element of risk – especially when the actors refuse to leave their hostilities outside the studio. So, will it all go to plan?

Moonstone Theatre Company’s on (and off ) mic performance off ers a nostalgic glimpse of a world in black-and-white, when the BBC’s Home Service and Light Programme were the pinnacle of great home entertainment.

Tickets: £8 (£6)
