What happens

In the 1920s, a shy Boston professor's daughter named Hannah Adams becomes smitten with Tim O'Connor, a hoofer performing at the Belmont Theatre. After a chance meeting leads to an awkward dinner at her family's home, the two begin a romance that surprises both of their families. Lux Radio Theatre presents this 1950 broadcast of You're My Everything, a musical comedy-drama about the early years of talking pictures, starring Anne Baxter and Phil Harris. The story follows the couple as their paths diverge and reunite amid the changing world of show business.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
