SORRY, WRONG NUMBER!
ZUUm TrUUpe (aka UU Players) Shares Some Fun With Us
In June, Jim Luongo had the idea to direct the ZUUm TrUUpe (aka UU Players) in a radio play via ZOOM. The result is Sorry, Wrong Number, a 1943 thriller written by Lucille Fletcher. It tells the story of an invalid (played by Sarah Bell) who overhears, due to a crossed-wire telephone connection, a murder plot. Her futile attempts to alert the phone company and the police, combined with her inability to reach her husband, leads her to fall deeper into a frightening mystery.

With sound design by Meg Jones and performances from Sarah Bell, Joanne Coviello, Lindy Hennessy, Candace Clinger, Janet Luongo, Bob Perry, Gian Morresi and Tom Croarkin, Sorry Wrong Number provides a welcome distraction in a retro format.

This radio program is available now for your listening pleasure, HERE.
