If you’re feeling dreary, not to worry!  We have some audio dramas to catch your attention, including another premiere from our MAT Features collection of 2017. This week we’re bringing you a story by Evan Waters, entitled “They Slipped the Bonds of Earth” – a story of science fiction, with a project gone horribly wrong. It is voiced by a fantastic group of actors – and a special thanks goes out to the evening staff at WCBE, for providing some of the background cafe goers you might hear if you listen close enough.  After that, it’s a story from the Decoder Ring Theatre Showcase series, penned byRead More →

Hello audio drama fans!  We have very little chatter in this episode – we heard your requests for more Black Jack Justice stories, so we’re treating you to more of Jack and Trixie in the new year.  This show clocks out just a few seconds shy of our full hour…which means you have a full 60 minutes chock full of these super sleuths to enjoy.  If you can’t get enough of this dynamic duo, or want to check out a certain tag-team of superheroes from Toronto, head over to Decoder Ring Theatre to check out both Black Jack Justice and The Red Panda Adventures.  TheseRead More →

2017 is nearly over!  But we’re still bringing you new audio dramas right up to the last week.  With the holidays starting to wrap up and thoughts of new lives and new resolutions start to spark, we thought it fitting to play two audio dramas from Earbud Theater that we thought fit with the uncertainty of the season.  Old lives and new beginnings are both themes in these stories, as we kick things off with “Zero’s Hour” – involving a character with little time to spare.  After that, we’ll lighten the mood a little with a quick commercial break from our friends at It’s AllRead More →

Happy Holidays, audio drama listeners!  That nip in the air means that Christmas is around the corner – that time of year where radio stations across the country break out their old-school or newly-produced renditions of A Christmas Carol, The Night Before Christmas, or other such tuck.  But we at Midnight Audio Theatre like to mix things up a bit, looking for new stories still related to the holiday season.  We have two such tales this show, as we welcome back friends and past-featured groups Campfire Radio Theater and The Truth Podcast.We start with a country’s desire for new leadership and the promise of making everyRead 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 →

You’re probably looking at this and wondering, “Where’s Episode 226?”  Well, we’re holding off on posting it for now.  We aired a few more of our MAT Features along with a listen to one of our newest productions from our 2016 collection – but we’re planning on premiering the 2016 MAT Features as a whole in two weeks, so for now we’re keeping Ep 226 under wraps.  Thanks for understanding! Well folks, it’s official!  The MAT Scriptwriting Competition is now closed!
