Radio City Playhouse

Motive for Murder

English · Drama, Anthologies, Radio

Radio City Playhouse is an anthology drama series, presenting self-contained stories rather than following a single cast of characters from episode to episode. Its title suggests a theatrical approach to radio storytelling, with each broadcast inviting listeners into a different dramatic situation.

The episode is identified as “Motive for Murder.” The program’s format centers on spoken performance and sound, using dialogue and radio production to bring its story to life in the listener’s imagination.

As a dramatic anthology, the series offers a direct, intimate listening experience: a new story unfolds through voices and atmosphere, with the focus on the unfolding action rather than a continuing serial plot.
