June 28, 2015

 Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev) has been writing, producing, directing and voicing his unique Willoughby and the Professor radio theater stories, complete with sound effects and music, since he was 12 years old in 1973. On this week's The Joe Bev Hour Sunday Edition, Joe Bev does all the voices on a new Willoughby and the Professor story: Dimension X Revisited... or... Willoughby Goes and Gets It . Volume 1: http://www.amazon.com/The-Whithering-Willoughby-Professor-Comedy-O-Rama/dp/B0055T6XMK This is epic science-fiction fantasy comedy, in the Monty Python/Terry Gilliam vein, about a boy and his professor who travel willy-nilly across time and space in a failed attempt to ''cure the world of all its ills''. Produced, directed, and voiced by Joe Bevilacqua, with David Garland and Margaret Juntwait, written by Joe Bevilacqua and Robert J. Cirasa, theme music by David Garland, musical numbers written by Joe Bevilacqua, performed by the Paul Salomone Trio with Paul on piano, Ed Fuqua on bass, and Jim Mason on drums. Volume 2: http://www.amazon.com/Whithering-Willoughby-Professor-Worlds-Comedy-O-Rama/dp/B00PZJ8RGA/ These are the further misadventures of the pertinacious professor and his perky partner who pucker around the globe and through time and space, in a vain attempt to "cure the world of all its ills". This second set of imaginative, sound-effect-rich audio cartoons, produced, directed, and voiced by veteran, award-winning radio theater artist Joe Bevilacqua, with announcing by David Garland (WNYC, WQXR) and a special guest appearance by Margaret Juntwait (the Metropolitan Opera). 43 years of Joe Bev's radio theater is available via online podcasts, MP3 downloads and CD box sets, from Waterlogg Productions and Blackstone Audio. Reviews: "Descendents of Laurel and Hardy and Holmes and Watson, among others, Willoughby and the Professor bring radio listeners along on a series of adventures, often in exotic lands and always in the more exotic land of the imagination. - David Hinckley, New York Daily News "We chose to add Willoughby and the Professor to our Contemporary Radio Humor collection because it is unique. One person does all the voices." - Ken Mueller, Radio Manager, The Museum of Television and Radio. "Joe Bevilacqua is producing a successful radio theatre series almost single-handedly. In one episode, there was a box full of 13,000 roaches and, through a mishap, the box exploded. Even in TV or film, Bevilacqua asks, how could you have 13,000 roaches raining down?" - Amy Hersh, Backstage The Joe Bev Audio Theater is a half-hour anthology representing more than forty years of storytelling by Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev), the veteran, award-winning actor, writer, producer, director.
