Lux presents Hollywood. A luxe radio theatre brings you George Brent, Priscilla Lane and Gayle Patrick in wife, husband and friend. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Cecil V. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen.
Many a woman has given up a career for marriage, and many a husband has been constantly reminded of it ever since. In such cases, the husband usually becomes a philosopher. And the strange thing is that with every passing year, the more wonderful the career is likely to seem to the lady and the greater the demands on the husband's philosophy.
It's a very far-reaching situation. And that's what gave universal appeal to the 20th Century Fox picture, wife, husband, and friend, a very human comedy that you'll hear tonight with Priscilla Lane as the wife, George Brent as the husband, and Gail Patrick as the friend.
borrowed Miss Lane this week from the cast of the new Warner Brothers picture, Million Dollar Baby. In wife husband and friend, a wife's career, this time it's singing, pops up quite unexpectedly when her husband thought it safely buried away. The result is a domestic crisis of the first magnitude, and the solution is a monument of ingenuity. But that's for
George Brent, Priscilla Lane and Gayle Patrick to reveal at the proper time. I hope you're ready for an evening of deity and laughter, because we have the makings of it right here, and all we need is you to enjoy it.
Every once in a while, someone who just joined this audience tells us that they're going to buy a few boxes of lux flakes because they consider it their logical ticket to these evenings in the Lux Radio Theatre.
