Prior to television, the radio ruled. AM stations all over America and the world not only reported the news, but provided household entertainment. Some of those forms were concerts and comedy, but the radio play is what ruled the airwaves.
Plays were performed with sound effects and often as serials continuing the adventures of their characters for episode after episode.
If you've seen the film A Christmas Story then you are familiar with the concept as the main character, Ralphie, sits in rapt fascination listening to Little Orphan Annie.
Please listen to the Radio play version of Lucille Fletcher's classic thriller Sorry, Wrong Number. Afterwards, read the play script and find the differences as it was adapted for the stage.
