FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is storytelling radio?

Storytelling radio encompasses audio drama (scripted, acted, sound-designed), narrative nonfiction (real stories told in a compelling structure), oral tradition (folk tales, personal narratives), and spoken word performance. It is radio at its most creative.

Are there still new radio dramas being produced?

Yes — BBC Radio 4 and Radio 3 continue to produce new radio dramas regularly, as do public broadcasters in Germany (Hörspiel tradition), Scandinavia, and other countries. Independent producers also create original audio drama for online radio stations.

Where can I find classic radio drama?

Several stations specialize in rebroadcasting classic radio dramas from the golden age (1930s-1960s) — mystery, science fiction, comedy, and thriller serials. These stations preserve an art form that many younger listeners have never experienced.
