Radio Slam - Online

Four Utah playwrights began writing 10-minute radio plays for ages 12+ on April 16. Then, on April 24, four creative teams were randomly created. Each team had access to the expertise of the creative team that’s been creating radio drama together for over a decade (Matthew Ivan Bennett, Cheryl Ann Cluff, David Evanoff, Jay Perry) and rehearsed virtually, recorded all of the components in isolation by April 29, and then edited and finalized their piece with sound engineer to start airing  April 30 and May 1. You can stream them now with the Plan-B Theatre Company FREE App from Wednesday, June 3, 2020 – Monday, August 31, 2020.
