Screen Directors Playhouse
The Prisoner of Zenda
von
Screen Directors Playhouse brings Hollywood filmmaking to radio, presenting original stories and adaptations in a dramatic anthology format. Each broadcast offers a self-contained production, with the emphasis on cinematic storytelling shaped for sound.
This episode presents The Prisoner of Zenda, a tale of mistaken identity and political intrigue set in the fictional kingdom of Ruritania. Its story centers on an ordinary man drawn into a royal crisis because he resembles the king, placing questions of duty, loyalty, and personal risk at the heart of the drama.
The program’s appeal lies in hearing a familiar screen-style adventure reimagined through dialogue, performance, and sound. The result is a compact radio drama that invites listeners to follow the shifting identities and high stakes through the imagination.
