The Abbott And Costello Show presents “Robinson Crusoe with Charles Laughton,” originally broadcast February 10, 1944. This NBC Camel program is commonly cataloged as episode 51.
In the radio studio, Mrs. Niles stages a comic Robinson Crusoe play for Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, with guest star Charles Laughton joining the fun as Friday. Lou takes on Robinson Crusoe as the mock adventure moves to a desert island, complicated by an overeager sound-effects man. The broadcast also features Mel Blanc, announcer Ken Niles, vocalist Connie Haines, and Freddie Rich and his orchestra.
The Abbott And Costello Show presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
