My Friend Irma

Bon Voyage

by

My Friend Irma is a radio comedy centered on Irma Peterson, a sweet-natured but scatterbrained young woman, and her practical roommate and friend, Jane Stacy. Irma’s misunderstandings and impulsive decisions often complicate Jane’s efforts to manage everyday life, work, and romance.

The program brings their friendship to life through dialogue, comic situations, and a supporting cast of familiar characters. Irma’s distinctive way of interpreting the world provides the engine for the humor, while Jane’s exasperated affection gives the stories a steady counterpoint.

Warm and character-driven, the series mixes domestic comedy with the rhythms of a lively radio sitcom. Its appeal lies in the contrast between Irma’s innocent confusion and the people around her trying to keep things on track.
