Perhaps Dr. Radio is a eulogy to Radio Row. Written by Chris McGovern, South Floridas most beloved creator of musical theater, the musical is world-premiering at Florida Stage. Its about a radio repair store somewhere on the Lower East Side thats following the radio star into oblivion. Facing foreclosure, the owner decides to divulge what must feel to him like an eon of memories and stories, reminding us that you cant get to the future until you know the past. How musical numbers figure into this, youll have to find out.
