Even goofballs don’t want to goof up on live radio! That’s why Red Skelton, mid-century’s classic clown, held rehearsals ahead of each broadcast. His whole gang was there, too, of course! Musical mirth-makers Harriet Hilliard and Ozzie Nelson, sidekick Wonderful Smith, and persuasive pitchman Truman Bradley tested out their timing before their live shows each week. Here are twelve terrific practice sessions featuring Clem Kadiddlehopper, Junior (The Mean Widdle Kid), and Deadeye (the roughest, toughest cowboy around). Tune in for the creative characters, amusing antics, whimsical observations, and chaotic comedy of the one and only Red Skelton.
Includes a Program Guide by Ivan G. Shreve, Jr.
