Welcome to a special edition of Pioneers of Outlaw Country. Today you are in for a treat. Grab your popcorn as we dive into an old-time radio show.
As I was researching the stage routes of Wyoming, my internet searches kept directing me to the movie, Stagecoach. I admit I was a bit annoyed but then my curiosity got the best of me. I finally listened to the radio dramatization of the movie - when I should have been researching, I admit! Since I enjoyed it, I figured that many of you would, too.
This is the radio adaptation of STAGECOACH, and was originally broadcast on January 9, 1949. The show stars John Wayne and Claire Trevor, reprising their film roles from the 1939 movie.
John Wayne as the Ringo Kid, Claire Trevor as Dallas and Ward Bond as Doc Boone.
In 1885, the stagecoach was the only means of travel on the American frontier and in those days no name struck more dread into the hearts of travelers than Geronimo leader of the warlike Apache’s. Stagecoach is the story of a party of people who travelled from Tonto, Arizona to Lordsburgh, New Mexico by stagecoach. The passengers on the coach include the drunken Doc Boone, good-hearted prostitute Dallas, Lucy Mallory a pregnant woman, Hayward, a bank manager who has taken off with his client's money, and of course the famous Ringo Kid.
