Showcase #33 – Gunsmoke – Kitty

Hi folks,
This is our audio drama showcase where we discuss great public domain audio dramas on a weekly basis. If you are subscribed to our newsletter and registered on our site you will have free access to these great audio downloads.
This week we turn our attention to one of the best episodes produced during the run of Gunsmoke (a show that rarely made a mis-step in the regular production of high quality shows). From a time when prostitution was not something that could be mentioned on Radio, this episode still manages to communicate an awful lot. Matt Dillon wishes to invite the local saloon keeper Kitty to a town dance. The result is nothing but humiliation for Kitty and, for the audience, a great insight into the difference between public and private morality (and of course hypocricy).
