Railroad Hour

Irene

von

The Railroad Hour brings Broadway musicals and operettas to radio in polished, condensed performances. The program presents familiar stage works in a format shaped for listening, with songs and dramatic scenes carrying the story.

Each broadcast centers on a musical production, combining vocal performances with orchestral accompaniment and spoken passages. The title here identifies Irene, the musical comedy about a New York dressmaker whose life changes when she enters high society.

The result is a bright, theatrical listening experience: romantic comedy, memorable melodies, and the sweep of a stage musical adapted for radio. It offers a chance to enjoy the show’s songs and story through performance rather than spectacle.
