The Funeral Crashers

4 Apr

I was recently involved as a voice actor in this play. It is running on Radio Mansfield Sunday afternoon’s during April 2025. If you are reading this after the event you can play the recording below. This was a lot of fun to be involved in. It’s also a great way to learn more about how to use your voice.

Throughout April 2025, Radio Theatre presents “The Funeral Crashers” by local writer Simone Curtis. Bachelor brothers Edward and Arthur Crompton, both in their seventies and living together at Sawmill Settlement, have come up with what they think is a very clever idea … to become Mansfield’s very own Funeral Crashers! Finding out which local citizens have passed away and attending their final farewells brings bounteous gifts of free food and drinks … perfect! But things don’t always go to plan and when things begin to unravel it might just lead to another unexpected death! Find out how much trouble the brothers get up to In the brand-new radio play “The Funeral Crashers”, broadcast every Sunday afternoon throughout April on “Radio Theatre” - right after the three o’clock news - during Roger Nolan’s “Groovin’ on a Sunday Afternoon” radio show on Radio Mansfield 99.7FM.
