- Command_Performance_(radio) abstract "Not to be confused with Royal Variety Performance, which is often called the Command Performance, and Royal Command Performance.Command Performance is a radio program which originally aired between 1942 and 1949. The program was broadcast on the Armed Forces Radio Network (AFRS) with a direct shortwave transmission to the troops overseas. It was not broadcast over domestic U.S. radio stations.The program was produced before an audience in the Vine Street Playhouse in Hollywood, California, and recorded via electrical transcription. The weekly listening audience of military personnel was estimated at 95.5 million.Troops sent in requests for a particular performer or program to appear, and they also suggested unusual ideas for music and sketches on the program, such as Ann Miller tap dancing in military boots. Top performers of the day appeared, including Jack Benny, Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope, Fred Allen, Ginger Rogers, Judy Garland and The Andrews Sisters.An article in a 1943 issue of Tune In magazine estimated the value of the talent appearing on Command Performance as follows: "Presented by a commercial sponsor, 'Command Performance' would have a weekly talent cost of $50,000. For Uncle Sam, there are no charges."The final episode of Command Performance -- the 415th in the series -- was produced in December 1949. The program was one of nine AFRS shows that were ended as a result of a budget cut by the Secretary of Defense.".
