The
Lux Radio Theatre Production
Lux Radio Theatre (1934-1955) was created through a collaboration between
the J. Walter Thompson advertising agency and its client Lever Brothers,
maker of Lux toilet soap. The hour-long dramatic program used stars from
the screen and stage in radio adaptations of popular films and plays.
Initially the show was broadcast out of New York City and focused on
Broadway productions. The show moved to Hollywood on June 1, 1936, and
began featuring film adaptations and film stars. The final program was
broadcast on June 7, 1955. |
