            Part of the story was born from an actual incident in the life of evangelist Aimee Semple MacPherson, who ran a radio station out of her temple
in Los Angeles and was prone to wander from channel to channel in search of broadcast space that was clear.  In violation of the Federal wavelength
code an inspector was sent to investigate.

           

Set in the 1920’s, music teacher Hazel Hunt received a radio transmitter for her retirement and station WGAL in Cedar Rapids, Arkansas
was born in her parlor.  A wacky quintet of singers/musicians gather daily to set hearts thumping and toes tapping with rib tickling songs and homey chat.
Her habit of wave jumping brings the government inspector and the fun continues.

 

The Guymon Community Theatre group has four productions a year, including one musical.
It is located in the old movie theater on Main Street in Guymon, Oklahoma.
