REPS SHOWCASE – OCTOBER 20th-23rd 2022

October 20, 2022 October 23, 2022 PDT

REPS is celebrating 30 YEARS this year, and we’re excited to bring back our REPS SHOWCASE in 2022!! VIEW 2022 SCHEDULE HERE!!!  CELEBRATING RADIO’S GOLDEN AGE During the Golden Age of Radio, listeners were entertained by legendary radio comedians, spine tingling thrillers, mysteries and adventures! The Hollywood motion picture stars made guest appearances on top weekly radio programs often to re-create their popular movie for the American radio listener. Radio was hot and millions of listeners tuned in daily to their favorite programs. Radio presented fascinating audio stories by appealing to the listener’s imagination. Entire sound effects departments were developed by radio broadcasters. These sound effects men and women were then tasked to create the sounds of footsteps, horse’s hooves, doors being slammed, rain, thunder, car engines, dogs barking, babies crying, fire cackling, running water, gun shots or whatever the situation required. For one grand weekend this October, we will roll out the red carpet to welcome the Stars and to bring back the sound effects artists to pay homage to the fondly remembered Golden Age of Radio. Join us!   SPECIAL GUESTS FOR THIS YEAR INCLUDE:
