N B C U N I V E R S I T Y T H E A T E R O F T H E A I R ----- ------------------- ------------- --- ----- ----- 1948 - 1951 First Show: 07-30-48 Last Show: 02-14-51 Number Shows: 122 Audition Show: none Show Description: In 1944, NBC brought WORLD'S GREAT NOVELS to radio, offering high quality adaptations of some of the great works of literature. Some colleges offered college credit in conjunction with the radio broadcasts. In 1948, the series was re-titled NBC UNIVERSITY THEATER OF THE AIR and production was moved to Hollywood. The first broadcast of the new series aired July 30, 1948. These adaptations were again of high quality and again colleges offered credit in conjunction with the broadcasts. In 1948, the Peabody was awarded to the NBC University Theatre for "an hour's dramatization of some of our finest novels and short stories... launched as an experiment in July, 1948." The following is a quote taken from the Peabody Award web site: The response to the first five performances, which included "A Farewell To Arms," by Ernest Hemingway, "Noon Wine," by Katherine Anne Porter, and "Main Street," by Sinclair Lewis, was so vociferous that the network pocketed any misgivings it may have had, moved the show to a more desirable hour, and found the actors and the funds to sustain a series of absorbing and skillfully adapted programs. Unfortunately, the "University" in the title kept listeners away for fear of the shows being to "high brow". NBC attempted to change this view by removing the "University" from the title for a short time. For the time that it was on the air, there were frequent day of the week, time of day and even program length changes. Despite the lack of broadcast consistency, the shows were consistent in its level of quality. Long after the demise of regularly scheduled dramatic radio in the United States, these shows were still being heard in school classrooms across the nation. If you've ever desired to read the classics but can't seem to find the time, these shows are a great alternative. Almost all have survived in good audio quality. List Comments: As seems to be usual with series of this kind, there are not many vendors that carry them. The majority of the information used to compile this log came from J. David Goldin's OTR database and Jerry Haendiges's OTR site (see References below). Since the title and author of the show is as important as broadcast order, I've provided 3 separate listings, a chronological listing, a title listing and an author listing. Chronological Log: The log was designed to be 70 characters wide. Therefore, the Title and Author field are restricted in width. When a title or author's name is too long for the field, it is continued on the next list, slightly indented. The Title column is also used to hold information about day of the week, time of day, length of show, etc. A column is provided to indicate if the show is known to have survived ("Surv").
