Introduction Radio Live Arts · Philadelphia

Welcome to Radio Live Arts. This project is born out of a love of spoken word performance, audio drama, and old-time radio programs—anything where the connection between word, speaker, and audience is at its most focused. And also a little bit of cool sound engineering.

Check out our live performances, our online and at-home experiences in the Listening Room, and the Journal for podcast and blog posts that blend conversations about the process and original works of art in that space. We also do custom commissions for teams, so if you have an idea for a project, let’s talk about it.

Browse the site as you will. If you’d like to make interesting things together, drop a line at words@radiolivearts.com.
