Legendary radio personality Phil Hendrie will perform live on stage at Theatre West to make you laugh as he portrays several of his memorable characters, unburdening themselves as they navigate life’s rocky roads. Chris Norton is an aspiring adult film/actor director who has a terrible speech characteristic: He pronounces “sex” as “sess.” He’s producing an “aminated” film called “Daffy Dick.” He’s looking for investors. Jay Santos, self-appointed neighborhood cop. His group, the Citizens Auxiliary Police, say they’re going to “save lives” but they wind up staying home and peering through the window till it isn’t “so hairy” out there. Steve Bosell is a construction contractor from Knoxville Tennessee who gets his feelings hurt a lot. His crew chief Cliff Pedigrew is always making fun of him and he sued his own daughter once because her puppy peed on him.
Phil will do a talk-back with the audience after his performance.
Phil Hendrie first rose to prominence locally in the late 1980s with The Phil Hendrie Show on radio stations KFI and KLAC, then moving to national syndication. He now continues on the air in a podcast on his website, https://philhendrieshow.com and on other platforms. In September, 2024, he will be inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in Nashville. His show broke ground satirizing the radio talk show format: He would conduct call-ins and be the voices of many of the incoming callers, sometimes in conflict with actual members of the public calling-in.
In addition to radio, the man of a hundred characters has lent his voice to roles in animation (King of the Hill, Rick & Morty, Futurama, more) and acted on TV (Grey’s Anatomy, Grace & Frankie, Young Sheldon, more) and in feature films (This Is 40, Semi-Pro, Destroy All Neighbors, more).
