It’s another night of new audio drama on Midnight Audio Theatre!  This show we get back on track with our friends at It’s All Been Done Radio Hour, and welcome new friends at Downstairs Entertainment as we get a listen to their noir production, Rex Rivetter: Private Eye.  Mystery, scifi, horror and comedy – there’s something for everyone this show! We’re opening our show up with a double dose of local listening.  As It’s All Been Done Radio Hour‘s live show is the following day – and we’ve neglected them the past month or two – this show presents two of their stories back-to-back.  To startRead More →

Hi folks!  This show we shared a full hour of the Atlanta Radio Theatre Company in a special-crafted full hour of “ARTC Presents”, which they made available through PRX.  There’s a great variety of stories here from their series Into the Labyrinth, which include “Time for Station Identification”, “Our Fair City”, “Philip Meow-Lowe, PI” and “Wiki-history”, all recorded from live performances of the pieces.  And I do mean a full hour – which is good for this sinus-infection-weary host.  It’s a night of the unknown, with time travel with and without a time machine in “The More Things Change“.  Enjoy!   Don’t Forget to Check Out:Read More →

Welcome back and thanks for tuning in for some more audio dramas!  This show we take another look at Decoder Ring Theatre‘s Summer Showcase series.  Decoder Ring has become so well known for the Red Panda Adventures and Black Jack Justice that sometimes the smaller, shorter series they’ve done fall through the cracks, and we want to make sure you hear some of them!  Take for example tonight’s dose of noir – in color!  It’s a fresh, quick new private investigator with a background setting pulled straight from the early 80’s.  Meet Slick Bracer – a man with a snappy attitude; a tough guy who caresRead More →

Hi folks!  We had a new episode on this day, but we only had permission to broadcast it on the radio.  As a result we don’t have that night’s show for download, but you can find that night’s feature – selections from the National Audio Theatre Festivals’ performances in 2003 – at the Public Radio Exchange website, PRX.org.  It’s a fun listen to some live performances, and a good lead-up to the HEAR Now Audio Fiction Festival happening this June.  The festival is a gathering of audio storytellers (audio books, audio dramas and more) and enthusiasts to meet up, make connections, recognize exceptional skill andRead More →

Hello there, audio drama fans!  We had a lot to talk about this episode, so hang tight…. First things first – we mentioned last show that we’d be doing a double-feature premiere of our MAT Features from 2016. However, we changed our plans up a bit and figured we’d split the stories across two weeks – because next show will air just before our live auditions for this year’s MAT Features in Columbus, OH!  If you live in Columbus but can’t make it out for tryouts, not to worry – you can send in your audition by email through Sunday, March 12th.  Check out our audition pageRead More →
