"Radio Drama" brings together the practical skills needed for radio drama, such as directing, writing and sound design, with media history and communication theory. From the early audio broadcasts of 1914 and the development of General Electric's New York "WGY" station in 1922, through Orson Welles' startling Halloween broadcast of "War of the Worlds" in 1938, to more recent radio spoofs and the subversive challenge from "media guerrillas," Tim Crook explores the history and contemporary practice of radio drama.
