“…it can also be far more adventurous than theatre or film. There’s no need to obey the unities of time and space; we can go anywhere, any time in our imaginations without leaving the room.”- Kate
Chisholm
Ms. Chisholm certainly has hit squarely upon the nail with this comment. Audio Drama/Radio Drama is such a wide and varied form of entertainment. It can have the grandiose spectacle of a blockbuster film. It can be as as poetically descriptive as a novel. It can be as accessible as a stage play, and it is one thing more than all of those- it is the most intimate of mediums. Read the rest of Kate Chisholm’s article in The Spectator– Why British radio plays can’t compete with those from the Continent (hint: they totally can!)
