Arch Oboler's Plays

The Truth

Arch Oboler's Plays presents radio dramas written by Arch Oboler, a major figure in American radio drama known for imaginative, often unsettling stories. The series brings his original scripts to life through actors, dialogue, and sound, creating a theatrical experience designed for listening.

Oboler's work ranges across suspense, science fiction, psychological drama, and social themes. Rather than relying on a single continuing cast or storyline, the program offers self-contained plays, with each broadcast building its own world and conflict through performance and radio sound.

The result is an intimate, atmospheric style of drama: voices and carefully shaped effects invite listeners to picture what is happening, while the stories often explore fear, human behavior, and the consequences of difficult choices. This broadcast is titled “The Truth.”
