In the summer of 1946, Orson Welles returned to the medium that made him famous with Mercury Summer Theater of the Air, a 15-week CBS series produced, directed, and starring Welles himself.
EricHOST
The program deliberately echoed his earlier Mercury Theater on the Air and the Campbell Playhouse, reuniting many familiar collaborators, including Bernard Herman and Agnes Moorehead.
EricHOST
But this new incarnation was leaner than its predecessors, condensing stories into 30-minute broadcasts and drawing not only from classic literature, but from radio's own growing body of original dramas, including the one you're about to hear.
TimHOST
The Search for Henri Lefèvre first aired on Suspense 1944, starring Paul Muni, remembered today for his iconic performance in the original Scarface.
