SAGA OF RADIO AND TV GETS SPREAD A BIT THIN
2002
Overview
Patton Chiles, director of the Missouri Historical Society's theater-in-residence, and her cast of veterans - John Contini, Whit Reichert, Rosemary Watts ([Joe Dreyer]'s real-life wife) and Susie Wall - have a ball re-creating vintage material from the \"Golden Age\" of each medium. Since Dreyer and Chiles simultaneously deride those commercials while exploiting their nostalgic, emotional value, they undercut their own points. Maybe they didn't give themselves enough of a chance to make them. Both Dreyer and Chiles have said that \"Air Waves\" included several plays before the script was cut. A different cut - for example, one that concentrated on radio and another on television - might have provided plenty of entertainment for one play this season and another next year, with less skimping on business, on technology and on memory.
