Mrs Dalloway (Aired April 2, 1950)
NBC THEATER was truly one well loved program. Beyond just its educational value, the combination of great stories... quality acting... and first class production made these shows wonderful entertainment. They are truly great radio AND a highly accessible way to introduce YOUR kids to great American Literature! The “Worlds Great Novels” came to radio in 1944 as NBC began offering adaptations of some of the great works of literature. NBC moved the show to Hollywood in 1948 and renamed the show to NBC University Theater on the Air. Actual college credits could be earned in combination with the Broadcasts. If you don’t have the time to read some of the classics here is your Chance to listen to them.
