The Last of Mrs Cheyney

In Lux Radio Theater’s sparkling adaptation of The Last of Mrs. Cheney, Norma Shearer, Walter Pidgeon, and Adolphe Menjou shine in a tale of deception, wit, and unexpected romance. When the elegant and mysterious Mrs. Fay Cheney charms her way into London high society, she seems to be the perfect guest—until a string of secrets, stolen pearls, and unexpected affection threaten to unravel everything. What begins as a sophisticated heist quickly turns into a sharp social satire, exploring honor among thieves and the gray lines between crooks and aristocrats. With polished dialogue, delightful performances, and a twist of heart, this episode is a dazzling example of vintage radio drama at its cleverest.
