The Sears Radio Theater
The Sears Radio Theater
_____________________________________
This series sponsored by Sears brought to the radio audience another great var-
iety of dramatic entertainment. Skewing slightly away from the suspense and
mystery offered by the currently running CBS Radio Mystery Theater, the Sears
Radio Theater had rousing, hilarious, eerie, taut and exciting drama five times
a week. Every night a different host and a different theme. Monday, Lorne Greene
hosted Westerns; Tuesday, Andy Griffith had Comedy; Wednesday, Vincent Price
with Mystery; Thursday, Cicely Tyson and Love & Hate; Friday, Richard Widmark
for Adventure. Later in the series Howard Duff replaced Richard Widmark.
The original musical score was done by Nelson Riddle.
