NU Department of Theatre: The Radio Plays

During the Golden Age of Radio, imagination ruled the air waves.  With only voices and sound effects, stories and characters came to life. The Lone Ranger, The Shadow, Sherlock Holmes and Superman were the popular characters of the day who crept into American homes each night. In each of these stylized and overly dramatic programs, the listener had to rely on their own imagination to bring all of the character to life. Director Susan Picillo saw the vibrancy of this art form and has revived it in a contemporary way in, The Radio Plays.

Screen Time

Screen Time is created by Rob Pereira and Joy Gu, two Boston college students who love digging deeper into the best TV, movies, and anime out there. If you love learning about and appreciating what screen media has to offer, then join us every week for fresh analysis.

What the SPARK

What the SPARK is brought to you by Spark, Northeastern’s student-run contemporary art collective. Through the eyes of students, take a wild ride through the world of contemporary art with stories, interviews, and good vibes along the way.

NU Department of Theatre: Deferred

Inspired by Langston Hughes poem Harlem and Lorraine Hansberry's "A Raisin in the Sun", Deferred is an episodic radio play that follows the residents and staff of 20 Sahara Drive.
