Ransom Center The Harry Ransom Center presents the Violet Crown Radio Players in a performance of Erle Stanley Gardner’s "The Case of the Crooked Candle" on Thursday, June 12, at 7 p.m. in Jessen Auditorium. This live recreation of a 1950s radio broadcast of an episode of Stanley Gardner's Perry Mason is presented in conjunction with the exhibition On the Road with the Beats. The Violet Crown Radio Players are an Austin-based performance troupe of actors who recreate the once-common production and experience of live radio and make the live audience part of the act. With vintage advertising and news broadcasts, the radio production takes place in a time and place contemporary with the piece produced. Seating is free. Jessen Auditorium is in Homer Rainey Hall at The University of Texas at Austin. VIEW MAP. This event is an Erle Stanley Gardner Endowed performance. The Ransom Center holds the Gardner collection, which contains hundreds of teleplays, scripts, and memorabilia from the television show Perry Mason.
