Hi folks!  This week I’m afraid I’ve come down with something akin to a very back cold – or a very mild flu, I’m not sure which.  So thank you in advance for listening through my weird, scratchy talking at the beginning and end of tonight’s show.  Hopefully I’ll be in better shape for you next week! Before we jump in to tonight’s tales, I’d like to say a quick thank-you to everyone who turned up for our live auditions in Central Ohio – we sat in with Actors Theatre of Columbus last weekend to hear anyone interested in trying out for parts in ourRead More →

If you live in Central Ohio or the surrounding area, you know this is a great evening to stay in – because we had snow this morning.  In March.  And there’s more on the way. I used to live farther north, so this really shouldn’t be a surprise…but seriously? Anyway, what better excuse to stay in the warm indoors and listen to some stories?  This show marks Week 5 of our “Series Run” with Decoder Ring Theatre and Final Rune Productions. By the end of this month, we’ll be on to some new stories and series, so enjoy these two while they’re here!  It’s time to returnRead More →

Welcome back folks! It’s Week 4 of our “Series Run” here at MAT, where we’re running two episodic shows back-to-back – one from Decoder Ring Theatre and another from Final Rune Productions. This marks our halfway point for both series!  That means there will be plenty more of these stories coming our way through March, so we hope you’ve been enjoying them so far!  Tonight’s selections start with “Deck Gibson: Far-Reach Commander“, followed by Episode 4 of Final Rune Productions‘ “The Cleansed“, Season 1.     But what’s this?  A new announcement!  This is specifically for our listeners in the Central Ohio area. Now that our MAT Feature scripts haveRead More →

Hello MAT listeners, and any new visitors to our site this week.  Tonight’s show is a special episode to remember John S. Kuhn, Artistic Director of Actors Theatre of Columbus and a friend and supporter of MAT.  John passed away last Saturday from an apparent heart attack; he was 62. John was a leader in the Columbus theatre community; well-respected, creative and imaginative, and dedicated to the art of theatre and its various avenues of performance.  Beneath a strong sense of professionalism he was also kind-hearted, understanding and eager to help, encouraging others to pursue their talents and their dreams.  And as he encouraged others, heRead More →

Hello listeners!  A Happy Valentine’s Day to those who celebrate, and a Happy-Chocolate-Sale Day to those that don’t.  Tonight we pulled together a little something fro the holiday; first up we have more from Hartlife’s Our Fair City with Episodes 11 and 12 – “Let’s Make A Deal” and “The Chase”.  After that, our friends from 19 Nocturne Boulevard have a sweet story about blind dates and AIs in their tale entitled “A Date With Dana“.  Nothing overly-soppy tonight, but just enough for curling up with a good mug of hot chocolate, however you celebrate the day.     And don’t forget all the otherRead More →
