The Adventures of Maisie
Eddie, the Boyfriend
by
The Adventures of Maisie is a radio comedy centered on Maisie Ravier, a quick-witted showgirl whose travels and encounters lead her into a succession of comic predicaments. Ann Sothern, who originated the role on radio, gives Maisie a lively, independent voice and a knack for talking her way through trouble.
The program follows Maisie as she meets new people and navigates unfamiliar situations, with the humor arising from her sharp observations, confident manner, and the misunderstandings around her. Its episodic adventures combine character comedy with the changing settings and circumstances of Maisie’s life on the move.
Light and spirited, the series is carried by Sothern’s warm comic performance and Maisie’s resourcefulness. The result is an easygoing radio comedy with a personable central character and a playful sense of mischief.
