UNICEF, A Halloween Story: October 31st, 1981
Broadcast live from The Magic Castle, this hour-long show was said to be the first live commercial radio network drama to be broadcast in 25 years. It includes adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Black Cat" and George Toudouze's "Three Skeleton Key,” originally made famous on the Suspense and Escape old time radio programs.
Directed by Dick Orkin (Chickenman) and written by Richard Proctor, it has an impressive cast, including John Carradine, John Clark, John Houseman, June Lockhart, Lynn Redgrave, Casey Kasem, Jean Kasem and Gary Owens. Hosted by Yaphat Koto, with Marvin Miller serving as announcer, it was heard over the NBC Network and sponsored by Jensen Sound Systems.

You can! There are plenty of groups doing audio dramas and comedies, using vintage radio scripts, or writing new ones. I've directed and performed in shows with Project Audion (including lost episodes of old radio shows), and performed in shows with the Mutual Audio Network.
I wish there was some sort of intro, maybe I’m just conventional, but it threw me off by just jumping right into the story. I was wondering if I had missed something or what was going on.
