Sears Radio Theater

Often paired with The CBS Radio Mystery Theater during its first season, the program offered a different genre of drama for each evening's broadcast.

The Mutual series broadcast repeats from the CBS run until September 1980, when a short season of new dramas was presented.

Mutual continued to broadcast repeats of the program (along with a few previously unaired episodes) until December 1981.

On Thursday, Cicely Tyson was host of "Love and Hate Night" and Friday brought "Adventure Night", first hosted by Richard Widmark, followed by Howard Duff and finally by Leonard Nimoy.

Among the actors heard were Jim Jordan, Henry Morgan, Daws Butler, June Foray, Parley Baer, Mary Jane Croft, Howard Culver, John Dehner, Joan McCall, Don Diamond, Virginia Gregg, Janet Waldo, Vic Perrin, Hans Conried, Marvin Miller, Elliott Lewis, Jeff Corey, Lesley Woods, Robert Rockwell, Lurene Tuttle, Eve Arden, Keith Andes, Harriet Nelson, Alan Young, Tom Bosley, Marion Ross, Lloyd Bochner, Rick Jason, Frank Campanella, Toni Tennille, Arthur Hill, Dan O'Herlihy, Jesse White and Frank Nelson.
