Hi folks,
This is our audio drama showcase where we discuss great public domain audio dramas on a weekly basis. If you are subscribed to our newsletter and registered on our site you will have free access to these great audio downloads.
This week we’ve got a real treat for you. This is one of the earliest extant episodes of one of the defining radio adventure programs of its time. The Shadow began life as the narrator of a mystery show intended to boost sales of Street and Smith’s detective magazines. So popular was this narrator that he soon engendered his own line of magazines. The character got his own show in 1937, voiced by none other than Orson Welles (who left the show in 1938). Death-house Rescue is the earliest of the existing Orson Welles performances of the Shadow.
Enjoy and let us know what you think in the comments below.
