will include a legendary local radio and studio producer, Richard Fish, in the role of the alien, Klattu, and as the announcer on“ War of the Worlds”.
Fish is an actor, writer, and musician who has worked in audio theatre since 1970. Among his many accomplishments, Fish was among the folks who helped get the Bloomington radio station WFHB, Indiana’ s first community radio station, started back in 1993. Of local interest, he was the first person to record the String Bean String Band, back in 1972 at the Old Hickory Restaurant.
Fish is heard weekly over WFHB as host of“ The Firehouse Theatre,” presenting old and new audio theater, and as writer and presenter of“ Better Beware,” a weekly feature on scams and swindles. For 12 years, he wrote for and performed in“ The Firehouse Follies,” a live variety show offered four times a year. All these broadcasts are streamed and archived on the website < www. wfhb. org >.
Fish helped found the National Audio Theatre Festivals organization, and has worked with the leading figures in audio theater from coast to coast, including The Firesign Theatre and the legendary American grand master of the art, Norman Corwin.
Tony Brewer will be working with sound design and special effects director Chuck Wills, a recording engineer who also records“ The Brown County Hour” for WFHB.“ Brewer is one of the best live sound effects artists in the country,” Fish said. •
