We go back to December 2000 in a show originally broadcast on AM 880 KIXI, staring Chris Wedes (JP Patches) and Bob Newman (better known as J.P.'s pal Gertrude)
Wedes plays a Frederick & Nelson department store doorman, while Newman is the F&N Santa Claus. A family tries to visit the downtown Seattle Frederick's for their Christmas Eve ritual, but a snowstorm ensues.
The action is set in 1954, and also stars Tracey Conway, Dave Dolacky, Bob Brooks and Jim Dai. Sound effects were performed by David Persson.
The show was written, produced and directed by Feliks Banel. It was recorded before a live audience in Seattle a few hours before the broadcast.
Seattle Radio Theatre--are also doing a new live show this Fri, Dec 21 at 8pm at Town Hall and on AM 1090 with Pat Cashman, John Maynard, Tracey Conway, Jim Dever, etc.).
Our thanks to Feliks Banel for the tip.
