Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve was a popular character appearing regularly on The Fibber McGee & Molly Show. On August 31, 1941, the character landed his own situation comedy show, The Great Gildersleeve, becoming radio's first spin-off. Gildy moved from the town of Wistful Vista to Summerfield, where he raised his orphaned niece and nephew, Marjorie (originally played by Lurene Tuttle and followed by Louise Erickson and Mary Lee Robb) and Leroy (Walter Tetley). The household also included a cook named Birdie (Lillian Randolph). The Great Gildersleeve was the first show to be centered on a single parent balancing raising children, work, and a social life, accomplished with taste and genuine wit, often at the expense of Gildersleeve's slightly understated pomposity. Radio veteran, Hal Peary originated the role of Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve but left the series at the height of its popularity in 1950 giving way to Peary-sound-a-like and well-known character actor, Willard Waterman. Waterman continued in the radio role until 1957 and also played Gildersleeve in a TV version syndicated in 1955. Now, enjoy 12 half-hour comedy episodes of The Great Gildersleeve starring Willard Waterman. 2/14/51 "Leroy is Behaving Too Well"2/21/51 "Marjorie Gives Birth to Twins"2/28/51 "Trying to Name the Twins" 3/7/51 "Marjorie and the Twins Come Home" 3/14/51 "Deciding Between The Jolly Boys or a Date" 3/21/51 "Bronco Tries to Run the House" 3/28/51 "Gildy and Leroy Babysit the Twins" 5/2/51 "Spring Cleaning Judge Hooker's House" 5/9/51 "Marjorie and Bronco's First Anniversary" 5/16/51 "Boating Date with Kathryn" 5/23/51 "Bronco's Family Visits - The Twins are Named" 5/30/51 "Leaving on Vacation to Half Moon Lake"Voir livre

Two sweet and saucy comedies from an award-winning Irish playwright. In SAUCE, Mella is a compulsive liar, Maura is a kleptomaniac – and neither has any friends. Recently out of controlling relationships, they are thrust into uneasy freedom. Can they overcome their flaws together to avoid dying alone? Or will their compulsions engulf them in the end? A play about death and rebirth, Ciara Elizabeth Smyth's SAUCE was first staged at Bewley's Café Theatre, Dublin, in 2019 as part of Dublin Fringe Festival, and revived there in 2022. In All honey, Ru and Luke are throwing a house-warming party. But their guests are more interested in whispering in the box room than joining the festivities. Explosive characters and unfolding secrets mean the hosts will have to clean up more than red-wine stains and glitter. Ciara Elizabeth Smyth's debut play, All honey is about sex, secrets and suspicion. It premiered at the New Theatre in 2017 as part of Dublin Fringe Festival, winning the 2017 Fishamble New Writing Award. It was revived at Bewley's in 2018 and Project Arts Centre in 2020. 'A seriously impressive debut... Fast, furious and fiercely funny, All honey is a laugh-out-loud joy' - The Arts Review 'SAUCE will break your heart with a gorgeous vulnerability, while having you smirking at the cleverness of it all and laughing out loud' - The Arts Review '[SAUCE is] a really funny show... delights in innuendo and provokes hysterics' - Irish TimesVoir livre
