THE PETALUMA RADIO PLAYERS
In less than four years on the San Francisco Bay Area theatre circuit, after breathing new life into radio classics like 'The Shadow' in 2015, followed by the staging of 'Slay Bells Ring (Are you listening?),' four comedic original one-acts which played to sold out houses at the Hotel Petaluma in 2016, the Petaluma Radio Players, the North Bay's most eclectic and energized radio theatre company, are continuing to churn out a cornucopia of radio plays including vintage dramas like 'One Way Passage' (1932) and 'Trifles' (1916), and modern fare like the tear-jerking 'The Next Move' and in-stitches comedic noir parody, 'Story: A Detective Story.' We produce two radio plays per month. Join our podcast. Join our mailing list: info@petalumaradioplayers.com. Prepare to giggle and cry.

SELDOM SEEN, NEVER HEARD
•
Petaluma Radio Players
Recorded at KPCA-FM (103.3), 'SELDOM SEEN, NEVER HEARD,' is an original radio play written by Maryland inmate Larry Bratt. For his relentless efforts to improve inmate life and reform the penitentiary system, Bratt has received accolades from social justice groups, prison associations, and government agencies, including the Maryland Attorney General's office. In 'SELDOM SEEN, NEVER HEARD,' a prisoner befriends two robins who have built a nest outside his cell window. Through them, the prisoner's spirit is renewed, providing him room to consider whether the real bars restraining him might, in fact, be those inside his own mind. The play taps the talents of eight actors from the P.R.P. troupe and will be directed remotely from Austin, Texas, via Skype, by P.R.P.'s post-production supervisor, John Biehl.
