Magic Island was a 12-minute syndicated sci-fi radio serial written and produced by Perry Crandall. Aired on 1936, the story was about the adventures of Mrs. Patricia Gregory to find her daughter after 14 years of being lost.
It all started when Mrs. Gregory, her husband, and her one-year old daughter named Joan traveled through the South Seas using their family’s yacht. Unfortunately, their yacht has been damaged and shipwrecked in an area somewhere in 30th parallel south. After the incident, people have believed that Mrs. Gregory was the sole survivor of the accident. However, Mrs. Gregory have always believed that Joan is still alive, so she went to search for her and rescue her. With the help of Jerry, and an immense amount of reward, Joan was found. It turned out that Joan was washed off in a secret man-made island that can magically hide itself under the sea in order to avoid detections.
Contrary to what was aired on other radio shows, the story didn’t end when the missing character was found. The story also includes the life of both the mother and daughter after they were reunited. The role of Mrs. Gregory was played by Sally Creighton, while Will H. Reynolds starred as Captain Tex Bradford, Perry Crandall as the announcer, Tommy Carr as Jerry Hall, and Rosa Barcelo as Joan Gregory. The serial had a total of 132 episodes in collection.
