On Stage, Everybody

On Stage, Everybody was a United States television variety show which was produced by ABC, but aired on DuMont Television Network station WABD. Broadcast in 1945, it appears to have been one of several early television series produced for WABD so that ABC production crews could get experience in television program production, as ABC did not yet have a TV station of its own. The emcee on the series was Danton Walker. Notably, the Hall Johnson Choir made a guest appearance in one of the episodes.[1] As methods to record live television did not exist until late 1947, none of the episodes still exist.

Reception

Reviewing the second episode, Billboard magazine said "the show ran with a smoothness that is big-time".[1]

Reviewing the third episode, Billboard said "The third televersion of On Stage, Everybody had faults, but for the most part they did not interfere with the quality of the presentation".[2]
