Union Street Players (USP) starts 2011 with a fun twist on some classic thrillers. Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play takes three classic scripts by the master of suspence, Alfred Hitchock, and allows us to experience what it was like to be a live studio audience in the golden age of radio. USP Walk of Fame member, Pat Moriarity, sits in the director’s chair for the very first time and helms the production. Former USP President and veteran director, Marty Feeney, will work along side Pat as Assistant Director.

The ensemble cast will serve as voice actors playing multiple parts. The cast will also help create sound effects, just like it was done back in the days before television.
