Have Some Ho-Ho-Holiday Fun with WREP at the Ocean County Library Toms River Branch

TOMS RIVER – It’s the season of giving, and WREP - When Radio Entertained People will bring you cheer from the era when families gathered around the wireless set for “theater of the Imagination.” The troupe will perform in the Ocean County Library Toms River Branch, 7 PM Wednesday, December 11.

Make yourself comfortable in Mancini Hall. Take part in a music and trivia contest before you settle back for episodes of Our Miss Brooks, The Mysterious Traveler, and My Friend Irma. They’ll supply the sound effects. You’ll supply the “oohs,” “ahs” and laughs.

The 10 talented actors in the Toms River-based group have re-enacted scripts from radio’s “Golden Age” of the 1940s and ‘50s at the Ocean County Library since first forming in 2008. Michael Glenn Miller, a familiar face in Jersey Shore theater since 1972, leads the cast of motion picture, television, and stage veterans.

This program is sponsored by Friends of the Ocean County Library – Toms River, volunteers who support the Library as a community resource through fundraising and programs. New members are always welcome. Membership forms are available at all branches, or in the Friends portal of the OCL website.
