“Super woke, divisive, and worst of all boring. Unfortunately, fiction these days (for the most part) lacks creativity. This show gives a platform to such works.
Playing On Air is topical and lacks depth. There is always a political agenda lurking within the constructs of every story.
This isn’t...”Read full review »

“Love this podcast. I was raised on BBC radio theater which I loved and have missed, but this is a wonderful discovery. The plays are short and ideal for walking my dog. Thanks to all, I’m very appreciative.”

“I love the short plays. I listen to them while cooking and doing household chores, as well as walking around my home just to get some extra steps on for the day. I find myself looking for more to do in the kitchen or more cleaning and walking just so I can continue and listen to more. This is...”Read full review »

“I didn't grow up attending plays, or know anyone who did, so theatre always felt very unaccessible...until now! Playing on Air not only provides entertainment, but also allows anyone and everyone to access remarkable theater in the comfort of their home. THANK YOU and keep up the good work!!!...”Read full review »

“I binge listened to all the plays over 2 weeks & feel a loss that I came to an end.
Most plays are 10 minutes & then a great discussion with the playwright, actors & director.
Comedy, Drama, Fantasy, Romance, War, Sports, Family, Friendship. Just wonderful.
So many have left a...”Read full review »

“Short plays are like poems and not all of them will be to your taste, that being said I loved everything in the first three episodes. This show also gives you an interview with the Playwright that wrote the play you just heard. This is a huge extra to writers out in the middle of nowhere. Good...”Read full review »
