Theatre Five

(aka Theater 5) was a multi-genre anthology that aired on ABC from mid-1964 through mid-1965. The programme had a unique, slick Sixties feel to it that illustrates why the demise of Suspense only two years earlier is generally considered to mark the end of the Golden Age of Radio. The racy, 'Peter Gunn'-like theme music was hardly standard, the pace of the storytelling was quicker and no attempt was made to attract household names in starring roles. However, given the schedule (shows aired almost daily) the production values remained respectably high.

As near as I can tell, most of the scripts were original to Theatre Five. Those that weren't seem to have been adapted from previous radio scripts rather than from published fiction. Executive producer Ed Byron offered 40% above union scale* for radio scripts in order to attract the best talent he could afford; however, the clipped format—limited to 20 minutes of drama with a commercial break in the middle—seriously crippled the writers' attempt. The result was audio drama that was one-dimensional, presented very simple plotlines, and pandered to the reduced attention span of U.S. listeners.

I'm not saying this is bad, just different from what had gone before. And different from what was being produced elsewhere at the same time. The 1960s also saw The Black Mass (KPFA), Beyond Midnight [ZA], and many productions from the BBC [UK] such as "Dark Island" and "Chocky". In each of these other markets—where running times were longer and there were no commercial breaks to interrupt the listeners' concentration—more complex themes were explored. Today audio drama is still going strong in the UK, perhaps this is part of the reason?

Nevertheless, if you know what to expect, this series has much to offer: action, adventure, mystery, suspense, crime, horror, Sci-Fi, fantasy, supernatural, and humour... all packaged in small, easy-to-digest, pieces. You may even recognize some of the voices: Margaret Hamilton was the wicked witch in "The Wizard of Oz"; Alan Alda was Hawkeye Pierce in "M*A*S*H"; Peter Fernandez, Bernie Grant, Bret Morrison, and Larry Robinson were all in "Mothra vs Godzilla" (truly a classic!); Arthur Anderson was the voice of the Lucky Charms leprechaun (for 29 years); James Earl Jones was the heavy breather in Star Wars; Sammy Davis Jr was one of the 'rat pack' performers; Elaine May was an improv comedian with Mike Nichols; Ed Begley won an Oscar for his work in Sweet Bird of Youth; Al Hodge was the Green Hornet; Norman Rose was the host on Dimension X; Maurice Tarplin was the host on The Strange Dr Weird and the 'traveller' on The Mysterious Traveler. And Fred Foy, the announcer for this series, was also the announcer on The Challenge of the Yukon, The Lone Ranger, and The Green Hornet!

The programme directors were Ted Bell (134), Warren Somerville (108), William Gately (4), Harry Nelson (3), Fred Foy (1), and unknown (10). Except for Fred Foy, I can't find any record of the other four gentlemen having directed or acted on radio, television or film (I might be spelling their names wrong). That's odd. It suggests that they might have been general staff at ABC who were given a shot at directing to keep programme costs down. If so, if they truly were rookies, they did a mighty fine job!

Around 260 episodes were produced, a few dozen of which fall within the parameters of this site. Episodes averaged 20 minutes in length.

With Leon Janney (), Owen Jordan (), Charles Randall (), and Jack Hurdle ?? ().

Reviews:
A cartoonish ham-fisted satire that's sometimes funny and sometimes so-godawful-and-didactic-it's-funny. As usual, the terse T5 time slot means everything's rushed, particularly the murder plot that crops up a little too late in Act II. For all its faults, this science fiction fable raises issues about society's relationship with technology that are still with us in the 21st century (where anxiety over driverless cars has replaced anxiety over conveyor belt roads). --- Anonymous

2.5/4 Stars. Dad's a little upset in this one. Too unreasonable with the boy? A peculiar, half-laughable, half-intriguing idea is played for all its worth and yet, despite being taken so far, it mostly works. Brisk script, tech level 10 "science" (fantasy), better than fair performances, a predictable ending...No classic but a fun listen. --- RC

Reviews:
Fun premise marred, as usual, by having to cram everything into the brief time slot. But I like it anyway. My fave derivative-but-entertaining writer, George Bamber, structures it well: the first act is about all the cool stuff you would do if you had this improbable super-power; the second is a brisk descent into a nightmare. Five actors are credited, but I count about thirty speaking roles -- most of them one- and two-line bit parts as the hero picks up stray thoughts from various persons -- which might be a record for a twenty-minute T5 episode. --- Anonymous

Nothing Place, A

Story by: Frank Thomas

With Frank Thomas ?? (), Arlene Walker ?? (), and Donald Buka ().

After committing robbery and murder, a man and woman confidently hide out in a hotel room, but find themselves bedeviled by their puckish bellhop.

Reviews:
Actor Frank Thomas's script brazenly steals its plot and three characters from a 1949 TV play by Wyllis Cooper that got rave reviews in Variety and Billboard. Thomas, who played the bellhop role in the original and a 1950 rebroadcast, changes the dialogue, incidents, and ending enough so that it's not a direct plagiarism, but the result is pedestrian and uninvolving. Given that Cooper used to write for NBC's Empire Builders, among the first coast-to-coast drama series, it seems fitting to find a story of his hidden away in one of network radio's last anthology programs. --- Anonymous

A creepy-stalker story starring my favourite radio actress, Joan Lorring. Joan does a great job, but is overshadowed by the simple-minded stalker (Donald Buka). Corrine Orr also puts in a fine performance as the flatmate. This same script, if performed on The Man in Black or Fear on Four, would have me locking all the doors and windows. But the pacing in Theatre Five always seems too fast to properly build tension. And that's my main gripe with the series—a 30-minute show contains only 19 minutes of drama, whereas in 1938, a 30-minute show often contained over 25 minutes of drama (31% more)! Those 6 minutes matter. Nevertheless, this is one of the better Theatre Five episodes, with solid acting and a well-crafted story. It will send chills down your spine, but won't make you sleep with the lights on. [7/10] --- zM

Reviews:
A takeoff on the biblical story of Abraham's almost-sacrifice of Isaac, and then a spin away, where the father is ultimately left with a son who despises him and with nothing meaningful in his life.  Alas, the cruelty of the Corporation in this story left me with recollections of the company from which I'm now a retiree. -- Stanley

Reviews:
3/4 Stars. This well-meant, imaginative story is rather drawn out and, well, somewhat difficult to buy into, but a nifty script, excellent performances, great ambience from scene to scene and sound effects that assist credibility elevate the episode to above average worthiness. I stayed hooked. --- RC

Reviews:
3/4 Stars. A dang peculiar "story." Lights Out meets William Burroughs (or My Dinner With Andre)? Well, much more of the former than the latter, but the stream of consciousness isn't bad. The conversation is interesting, and the mush-mouthed fellow is a fun character. Ambient sound effects in this episode are good and combine to create a suitably strange soundscape. Actually, there isn't much of a story here, but "The Talkers" is worth listening to. This one's a personal favorite, though I don't rate it exceptional. --- RC

A remake of "Terror out of Space" (Murder at Midnight)

With Robert Dryden (), Ralph Camargo (), and Gilbert Mack ().

Reviews:
2.5/4 Stars. The overly melodramatic performances would kill this episode except that the actors are so obviously "into it" and they do convey excitement right to the finish. Given the depth of the writing --ankle deep, the efforts of the actors make the show about as good as it could be. As always, the Theatre Five music is a little trippy. "Hip" television bongo jazz for a science fiction story? It's all wrong but you get used to it. In fact, it's kind of fun here. Like 60's Star Trek or something. Among other things, the "hollow voice" processing for the alien's voice (and the stolid, stoic delivery by the actor) dates the show even before its time. Gotta say, Murder at Midnight's "Terror Out of Space" is way more fun. --- RC

3.5/4 Stars. A radio signal from "far beyond the universe?" I think the writer meant the galaxy, and there's more guessed-at science too (a modicum of research at the time would have cleared most of this up as well as providing even more interesting, and enduring, explanations), but it doesn't much matter. If you can roll with it, suspension of disbelief is possible because this is a good story that is carried off well. --- RC
