Radio theater production has been a component of secondary and post-secondary education since the late 1920s. Since the reduction in radio theater in the 1950s, such courses have been used to prepare students for other fields--television, film, etc. Radio theater production can be approached in two ways: classic production and modern production. Elements of classic production are performed in one take and instantly combined, usually before a studio audience; productions tend to be relatively short (15-30 minutes), and production elements are not complicated. Modern production style is closely related to motion picture techniques; elements are produced separately, allowing for multiple takes. These elements are combined during a post-production process, and productions can be longer (30-90 minutes) than classic style allows. Classic radio theater allows the educator another tool to teach production techniques applicable to other areas, as well as a performance alternative to these areas. Application in broadcast/electronic media and theater favors short rehearsal sessions, self-contained class projects, flexible staging, little cost addition, casting against physical type, and introduction to the performing arts. In communication/electronic media, classic radio theater also allows for theater of the mind, live remote productions and audience expansion.

Title of Dissertation: Theatre of the Mind, Live on Stage: Radio Theatre Production for Theatre Practitioners
Major: Fine Arts (Theatre)
Date of Graduation: August, 2007
Radio Theatre, the performance art of combining voice talent, sound effects, and music before live studio and broadcast audiences, was popular during the Golden Age of radio (1930 to 1950). Since 1950, regular television programming has relegated radio theatre in the United States to historical re-creations and public radio broadcasts. In recent years, the number of radio theatre production companies has increased among educational and community theatre groups. My experience has shown a close similarity between classic stage theatre production skills and radio theatre production skills.
This dissertation is the first study to identify skills and procedures required to produce radio theatre by individuals with stage theatre training and experience. The areas examined include script selection, voice talent, sound effects, music, sound equipment, visual elements, and business aspects. The study concludes with a skit comedy script written by the author and suggestions for performance.
