Horse Trade Theater Coup Announces THE 5TH H.P. LOVECRAFT FESTIVAL, Beginning 5/18

Remember the good old days of SATURDAY AFTERNOON DOUBLE-BILL MATINEES? No? Well, RADIOTHEATRE does and we invite you to our season of LIVE STAGE presentations complete with RT's great cast of storytellers, custom orchestral music and award-winning sound design. Next up - every Saturday at 4pm - our hit series, THE H.P.LOVECRAFT FESTIVAL returns for the 5th time with cult favorites:

REANIMATOR - mad scientist HerBert West is at it again trying his best to resurrect the dead as his gay acolyte Collins retells the tale from a padded room at Bellevue. Filmed several times, REANIMATOR has a huge cult following. This is RT's 3rd version!

THE SHADOW OVER INNSMOUTH - A young traveler discovers a village where the residents have toad faces and fish eyes! Wait 'til you hear what he discovers next! Filmed several times, this is one of Lovecraft's most influential works and RT presents it with a truly innovative approach.

Now in its 9th Season, RadioTheatre has been nominated for a 2010 Drama Desk Award, 13 New York Innovative Theater Awards; Winner of 2 NYIT Awards; Nominated 5 times for Outstanding Performance Group. For more information visit www.radiotheatrenyc.com.

Tickets ($18) and ($30 for any two titles) are available online at www.horseTRADE.info or by calling 212-868-4444. All performances will be at the UNDER St. Marks (94 St. Marks Place between 1st Ave and Ave A) from May 18-July 6, every Saturday at 4pm.

RADIOTHEATRE is NOT an old time radio show...rather; it relies on the combination of Story Telling, great voices, music and award-winning sound design...as well as, the individual imaginations of its audiences. These primary ingredients are used to provide a memorable, live, theatrical experience. Of course, we do like to add some 21st Century touches...such as cinematic scripts, original orchestral sound tracks that you won't hear anywhere else, a plethora of aural effects and, sometimes, a few visuals, too...creating a unique live production with non-traditional, modern, innovative stage presentation!
