Coming up next on Voicebox -- Don’t Let Your Ears Deceive You: On the art of ventriloquism

Believe it or not, ventriloquists used to be a popular fixture on the radio airwaves. Chloe Veltman welcomes playwright and theatrical impresario Sean Owens, ventriloquist Ron Coulter and Ron’s puppet partner of 60 years, Sid Star, for a discussion about the art, technique and culture of throwing your voice.

The program airs this Friday, January 27, from 10-11pm at 91.7 fm or www.kalw.org.
