For 15 months, the Kraft Corporation had been sponsoring two live plays a week,

 both titled Kraft Television Theater.

The NBC version, which aired Wednesday nights at 9:00, (and had been

 in that time period since the late 1940's).

When Kraft decided to drop the Thursday night version on ABC,

Pond's took over the sponsorship and retitled the series

Pond's Theater (ABC) (13Jan1955-7July1955)

 

The dramas were produced live in New York.

There were six producer/directors for this series.

They were: Fred Carney, Stan Quinn, Maury Holland, Dick Dunlap, Harry Herrmann and J. Fielder Cook.
