Your Old Fashioned Die Hard Holiday Radiocast

Audiences watch a small ensemble of actors portray every character from the classic holiday action-adventure film in the style of an old-fashioned radio broadcast. The cast generates zany live sound effects right on stage, complete with faux explosions and comedic audio antics. The lighthearted parody offers a unique seasonal outing that playfully argues Die Hard is truly a Christmas story.
