Old Time Radio Dramas

Old Time Radio Dramas

Radio drama is a form of audio storytelling broadcast on radio. With no visual component, radio drama depends on dialogue, music and sound effects to help the listener imagine the story.

Radio drama achieved widespread popularity within a decade of its initial development in the 1920s. By the 1940s, it was a leading international popular entertainment. With the advent of television in the 1950s, however, radio drama lost some of its popularity, and in some countries, has never regained large audiences.

However, recordings of OTR (old-time radio) survive today in the audio archives of collectors and museums.

Listen to such favorites as Inner Sanctum, The Creaking Door, Lights Out, Quiet Please, and many more.
