This moving holiday show recreates the experience of attending a recording of a 1940s radio show broadcast on Christmas Eve during World War II.
Using period songs and stories inspired by actual veterans, World War II Radio Christmas transports the audience to another time. An inspiring look at strength in the face of hardship, this play is a reminder of the importance of coming together for the holidays.
The author, Pat Kruis Tellinghusen, is a graduate of Watson Groen Christian School (now Shoreline Christian High School). She currently lives in Central Oregon.
She drew on her skills as a news reporter to interview people and research news reports and advertising of the day. She based vignettes in World War II Radio Christmas on the experiences of people who lived through the war years.
