Diamonds and Gold and Festival Foods present Let Me Be Frank Productions’ comedy musical of 2022, “WOMA Algoma: You’ve Struck Gold,” April 1st-23rd at the Meyer Theatre.
Running a radio station was the dream of Dale Eggert – and for three years, the dream was a reality! Dale’s time as the owner of the WOMA radio station has come to an end as Ray Wheeler has purchased the station, and Dale feels he has a higher calling to pursue work in ministry. What will happen to the loveable yet, slightly oddball crew of DJs and radio employees? Sally, the radio station sales manager, is concerned about how her clients will react to management changes. Radio personalities Sarah Martini, Tim Wentworth, and Tom Wagner make the best of the final days under Dale’s leadership by streaming live from Shanty Days! WOMA receptionist, Sandy, takes one last chance at convincing Dale she could be more than just his receptionist. What does the future hold for WOMA and its employees? Check out our hilarious new show, “WOMA Algoma: You’ve Struck Gold,” to find out.
