The Dixie Stenberg And Brassy Battalion Adventure Theater Takes Flight!

Online Audio

The Dixie Stenberg And Brassy Battalion Adventure TheatreAugust 8th 2006 will see the premier of episode two in The Dixie Stenberg And Brassy Battalion Adventure Theater audio drama series. I’ve listened to the first show and found it to have a charming 1940s retro radio serial feel to it. The premise is seemingly inspired by a cross between the real life Flying Tigers of WWII and the film of The Rocketeer. If I’m reading the signs on this one correctly it sounds like it’ll be about a covert squadron of heroic female P-47 Thunderbolt pilots and their specially equipped super-planes!
