Episode 113 - Jose Ferrer

Jan 17, 2019

Oscar and Tony-winning actor Jose Ferrer came to Suspense before he made his Hollywood debut when he was the toast of the Great White Way for his performance as Cyrano. He brought his stage actor’s intensity to his only performance on radio’s outstanding theater of thrills - an adaptation of Poe’s “The Pit and the Pendulum” (originally aired on CBS on November 28, 1947). We’ll also hear the star as detective Philo Vance in “The Case of the Strange Music” (originally aired on NBC on August 9, 1945).
