Writing for Radio

Word and sound

Created solely from word and sound, radio drama, from a playwright’s point of view, is the purest of the dramatic forms. Writing drama for radio isn’t simply a case of transposing the imagery of theatre and film into words, it’s a distinct dramatic medium with its own limitations and potentials. An intensive series of workshops on dramatic narrative, form and how it applies to the demands of radio drama.
