And on Monday, radio drama returns to WBAI:
"The Last Harbinger" from The Crazy Dog Audio Theatre, written and
produced by one of the world's leading creators of radio drama, Roger
Gregg - special broadcast of all five half-hour chapters, 7 pm to
midnight Monday Feb 27.
THE LAST HARBINGER is a satiric vision of an obscenely grotesque world.
The story begins as a strange Harbinger is sent on a mission to a
place called Moloch.
Moloch is an absurdly brutal world where the vanity of the elite
compels them to spend more on unnecessary cosmetic surgery than on
medicines for children in poverty. A world wherein a twisted
religious ideology applauds the materially well-off while condemning
the homeless. A world rapidly destroying its environment. A world
with precious little compassion. In short: Moloch is a civilisation
destroying itself.
The Harbinger has the truth.
But can truth alone save a world ?
Be warned:
The Last Harbinger is disturbing.
It is shocking.
The Last Harbinger is a parable for our times.
The Last Harbinger is a riveting audio movie with lush cinematic
sound design and the very best of Irish and international voice
talent. It is crafted to maximize the limitless imaginative potential
of the audio medium.
The series is in 5, half-hour episodes.
The Last Harbinger was commissioned by Radio Telefis Eireann, the
national broadcasting company of Ireland and was first broadcast by
RTE Radio 1 in May 2005.
