A heartless wife tries to drive her husband crazy, a seemingly easy task, as he's just been cured of insanity

Radio City Playhouse was a live half-hour anthology series that aired on NBC Radio from July 3, 1948 to January 1, 1950. Directed by Harry W. Junkin, with music by Dr. Roy Shield, and announcers Bob Warren (1948-49) and Fred Collins (1949-50), the series presented original radio dramas regardless of the fame of the author, so long as they were considered 'good'.

Harry W. Junkin was a Canadian-born screenwriter who did most of his work from the late '40s through the 1950s in America, and from the 1960s to the '70s in England.

Junkin had graduated to authoring dramatic scripts and also producing radio shows, among them Radio City Playhouse (for which he was both director and narrator from 1948-1949), Mr. Moto, Mr. District Attorney, Big Town, Mr. Keen, and Tracer of Lost Persons. He made the leap to television in the early '50s, and by the end of the decade had over a thousand radio shows to his credit
