A New Character Arrives at "Camp Waterlogg" inspired by Jonathan Winters

Weekly improvisational radio theater The Comedy-O-Rama airs Saturdays as part of The Joe Bev 3-Hour Block, which includes The Jazz-O-Rama Hour & The Joe Bev Experience, starting 2:30 pm ET, 1:30 CT, 11:30 PT streamed over cultradioagogo.com!



Joe Bev has multiple personalities. Sometimes, Bev is gruff Sgt. Lefty. Sometimes, he's meek Ellis de Boatkeeper.  Other times, he's a seven year old immigrant named Andy. Or stoner Woody. Or... sometimes Bev is all of them at once.

OUR PROMO VIDEO:

"Only when voicing my radio show," admits the veteran, award-winning actor-writer-producer, who has been improvising full storylines on the radio, doing all the voices himself for more than 40 years.

Along the way, Bevilacqua (his full name) has created serious documentaries, NPR reports, jazz shows and many other works in many genres.

Jonathan Winters

This Saturday, April 20th, The Comedy-O-Rama Hour presents "Camp Waterlogg-A-Go-Go! Fool Me Once, Fool Me Twice". The new radio play is part of The Joe Bev 3-Hour Block, starting 2:30 pm ET / 11:30 am PT on http://www.cultradioagogo.com.

In the hour, it's April Fools Day, when Sgt. Lefty (Joe Bev) and Olive Pitts (Lorie Kellogg) are doing all the chores at Camp Waterlogg, leaving the others to goof off. Kenny Savoy is featured as Stinky and Luigi.

In one scene, Joe Bev ad-libs all the characters in a pool match, including a new character Bev has created as a tribute to the comedian Jonathan Winters, who died on April 11, 2013.

"Jonathan was the greatest comedian of our time and an inspiration to all comedians," added Bevilacqua, who admits his new character is based on Winter's Maude Fricket.
