Series Descriptions

The Okie Red Dust Review

This show is a comedy/variety show that lampoons life in small-town Oklahoma.  The show is set at the radio station of the mythical town of Red Dust, OK.  The shows satirize news, weather, sports, cooking shows, car help shows, furniture repair shows, poetry, tradio, and the list goes on and on.  Bret Jones writes all of the shows and we have a group of musicians that write all the songs and music for the performances; we pride ourselves in the fact that all of our shows are original and not cover material.  We have performed our show on the road and will continue to do so in the future.  Some of our fans have called this the Okie version of A Prairie Home Companion.  That may be pushing it, but well take the compliment just the same.

Mystery, Inc.

This series chronicles the adventures of Ian Pierce, Jack Long, and Peter Ivonovichan Englishman, American, and Russian.  Assembled by a mysterious group known as The Organization, these three heroes hop around the globe righting wrongs, getting the girls, and exchanging witty repartee.  The show is set up as a serial with each chapter finishing with a cliff hanger ending.  Each story is told in a seven-chapter format.  The boys may have to chase down a missing stealth missing in one adventure and then hunting werewolves in the next.  These shows are studio shows that are not recorded in front of an audience.  Bret writes the scripts and the influences for the show are the old time radio shows:  I Love a Mystery, I Love Adventure, and Adventures by Morse. 

Dark Sanctuary

This is the groups horror anthology series.  Hats off go to old time radio programs such as:  Inner Sanctum, Lights Out!, and Weird Circle.  The shows are all studio efforts that focus on darker images and storylines.  The shows are designed for listening to in the dark and letting the imagination run wild.  The realm of Dark Sanctuary sees werewolves, vampires, and other of the nights creatures brought to life.  Bret writes the shows with Rudy Lupinski providing the original music score.  These shows are perfect for the Halloween season, or any other time, for that matter.
