Beginning Saturday, November 13, L.A. Theatre Works' Radio Theatre Series will air She Stoops to Conquer by Oliver Goldsmith, starring James Marsters, Rosalind Ayres, Adam Godley, Julian Holloway, Christopher Neame, Paula Jane Newman, Ian Ogilvy, Moira Quirk, Darren Richardson, Joanne Whalley and Matthew Wolf. The broadcast can be heard locally in Southern California on Saturday from 10 pm to midnight on 89.3 KPCC, and can also be streamed on demand at http://www.latw.org/.

Strange things are afoot at an idyllic country mansion in rural England: Young Kate Hardcastle and her cousin Constance are both newly engaged, but Kate's mischievous brother Tony Lumpkin plots to derail the happy occasion. And when the misguided suitors arrive, they turn the Hardcastles' estate upside-down. Bawdy hijinks, deflated pretensions, and underhanded fun are the order of the day in Goldsmith's hilarious satire of sentimental comedies.

L.A. Theatre Works' radio theater series can also be heard on the following stations (check local listings for broadcast times): 89.7 WGBH, Boston; 91.5 WBEZ, Chicago; 94.9 KUOW, Seattle; 90.1 WABE, Atlanta; 94.1 KPFA, Berkeley; 91.1 KRCB, North Bay (San Francisco); and many other stations nationwide.

Major funding for L.A. Theatre Works broadcast series is provided by the S. Mark Taper Foundation. Founded in 1989, the S. Mark Taper Foundation is a private family foundation dedicated to enhancing the quality of people's lives by supporting non-profit organizations and their work in the community.
