Sears Radio Theater - Voodo Lady

Sears Radio Theater was a radio drama anthology series which ran
weeknightly on CBS Radio in 1979, sponsored by the Sears chain.
Often paired with The CBS Radio Mystery Theater during its first
season, the program offered a different genre of drama for each
day's broadcast.

In 1980, the program moved to the Mutual Broadcasting System and
became the Mutual Radio Theater. The Mutual series broadcast
repeats from the CBS run until September 1980, when a short
season of new dramas was presented. Sears continued as a sponsor
during the Mutual run.

Monday was "Western Night" and was hosted by Lorne Greene.
Tuesday was "Comedy Night", hosted by Andy Griffith. Wednesday
was "Mystery Night" with Vincent Price as host. Thursday was
"Love And Hate Night" with Cicely Tyson doing honors as host.
Finally, Friday brought "Adventure Night", first hosted by
Richard Widmark and later by Howard Duff and then by Leonard
Nimoy.

Actors heard on the series included Parley Baer, Mary Jane Croft,
Howard Culver, John Dehner, Virginia Gregg, Janet Waldo, Vic
Perrin, Hans Conried, Marvin Miller, Elliot Lewis, Jeff Corey,
Lesley Woods, Robert Rockwell, Lurene Tuttle, Eve Arden, Keith
Andes, Harriet Nelson, Alan Young, Tom Bosley, Marion Ross, Lloyd
Bochner, Rick Jason, Frank Campanella, Toni Tennille, Arthur
Hill, Dan O'Herlihy, Jesse White and Frank Nelson.

It was produced and directed by Fletcher Markle and Elliott
Lewis. The theme was composed and conducted by Nelson
Riddle.

Though less long-lived than NPR's Earplay or the Mystery Theater,
it was an ambitious attempt to reinvigorate a neglected field.
Like Earplay, it was broadcast in stereo.
