Iowa River Players Theater finishes off 19th season with a chilling Hitchcock radio play

The curtain is drawn and the lights are rising for another show from the Iowa River Players (IRP) Theater Community Theater. The local theater company will be finishing off their 19^th season this weekend and the following with the show “Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play” at the theater in Rowan.

            This show is not necessarily a typical play that most theatergoers are used to seeing from IRP.  A radio play takes on a slightly different format that harkens back to a time before movies, where theater and drama came across the radio waves. People familiar with NPR’s “A Prairie Home Companion” will have an understanding of this delightful format.
