In
October of 1934, "Lux Radio Theater" debuted in New York on NBC's
Blue radio network. Presenting audio versions of popular Broadway plays, the
show failed to garner an audience and soon ran out of material. After switching
networks to CBS and moving to Hollywood, Lux found its true market. The show
began featuring adaptations of popular films, performed by as many of the
original stars as possible. With an endless supply of hit films scripts and an
audience of more than 40 million, Lux enjoyed a prosperous run until the
curtain fell in 1956.
