Before the Internet, there was television. Before television, there was Radio. Join us at the National Museum of Industrial History during SouthSide Community Day to experience a 1940’s “LIVE" Radio Broadcast without having to Time Travel.

S.O.A.P., now in its second decade of touring, performs original broadcasts from the 30's through the 50's for community organizations. S.O.A.P. voice actors have turned their love of nostalgia, popular culture, and historical preservation into live entertainment for all ages.
