https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arch-oboler-s-plays-radio-show--6213671Arch Oboler's Plays is a radio anthology series written, produced and directed by Arch Oboler. Minus a sponsor, it ran for one year, airing Saturday evenings on NBC from March 25, 1939, to March 23, 1940, and revived five years later on Mutual for a sustaining summer run from April 5, 1945, to October 11, 1945.

Lewis Titterton, an executive at NBC, originated the program's title. Titterton was described as a man who "thought the future of radio depended on the vision of the writer." With the launching of Arch Oboler's Plays, Oboler became "the first writer accorded name-in-the-title status." Christopher H. Sterling, in his book Biographical Dictionary of Radio, wrote, "Oboler, writing about 'the terrors and monsters within each of us,' used his stream-of-consciousness technique to shattering effect and made radio a viable new art form."]]>enTV & FilmCopyright Radio Shows of the Past!https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/ea43be05f4d9c7d94c7976799f91ab1e.jpghttps://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arch-oboler-s-plays-radio-show--6213671Tue, 25 Jun 2024 15:47:47 +0000Radio Shows of the Past!Radio Shows of the Past!feeds@spreaker.comArch Oboler's Plays is a radio https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthology_series written, produced and directed by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_Oboler.
