A radio play, also known as an audio drama or radio drama, is a purely acoustic performance. Instead of using visual sets or actors in costume, it relies entirely on dialogue, music, and sound effects to tell a story and let listeners imagine the scenes in their mind.

Radio plays became a primary form of entertainment in the 1920s. While television eventually took over traditional radio broadcasting, the medium lives on today in the form of modern podcasts and audiobooks.



LOCATION
Wollondilly Shire Hall
44 Menangle Street Picton 2571

All cast, and everyone in PTG are volunteers as a local community theatre group.
We look forward to seeing you there.


PTG presents a live radio-style performance of John Finnemore’s 
Cabin Pressure.
Stripped of sets and costumes, this production relies entirely on razor-sharp dialogue and vocal timing to bring MJN Air to life. Follow the crew of a one-plane charter firm—commanded by the iron-willed Carolyn, navigated by the smug Douglas, flown by the frantic Martin, and hindered by the idiotically optimistic Arthur—as they battle ego, incompetence, and the laws of physics.  

Cabin Pressure 3 episodes

Abu Dhabi - The town of Bristol, a cat and a thermostat combine to present Martin with a career-breaking crisis.
Douz - Carolyn finds she’s taken more on board than she meant to when the Scottish Cricket Team, a Frenchman and the Sahara Desert all run out of petrol...
Edinburgh - A very special passenger makes Douglas grovel, Martin crawl, Carolyn frisk and Arthur cry.

The cast list:
MAIN
Martin - Male, late 20s/early thirties
Douglas - Male, mid 40s/mid 50s (older than Martin)

Casting & Rehearsal Notes
Thursday Sessions (2.5 hrs): Focus on dialogue, character relationships, and specific scene "bits."
Sunday Sessions (4 hrs): Focus on the technical "radio" aspects—Foley, ensemble doubling, and full episode runs to build stamina for the double-show day on August 1st.
Douz Ensemble: Since "Douz" has the most guest characters (Cricketers, Panda Pilot, Ground Crew), use the Sunday sessions to coordinate the "wall of sound" needed for the crowded desert scenes.
