Lux Radio Theatre

Come to the Stable

von

Lux Radio Theatre brings Hollywood stories to radio, adapting films and stage productions as dramatic broadcasts. This recording is identified with Come to the Stable, a story centered on two French nuns who arrive in a small New England town with an ambitious plan to build a children’s hospital.

The program presents the story through a full cast, dialogue, music, and sound effects, giving the familiar screen tale a distinctly theatrical shape for listening. Its polished performances and carefully staged scenes make the characters’ determination, the townspeople’s reactions, and the practical obstacles to their project easy to follow.

Warm-hearted and gently comic, Come to the Stable balances the nuns’ idealism with the everyday complications of bringing their vision to life. The result is an inviting blend of human drama and light humor, presented in the grand, star-oriented style associated with Lux Radio Theatre.
