I want to join the voices of praise and let you know that you really know how to turn any genre into a masterpiece.  I have enjoyed everything that my ears have been able to snap up here. The Youth of Old Age - now that was really something. Amazing wit, satire and drama all rolled into one.  You have outstanding actors. Awesome. Discovering you was like unearthing a legendary buried treasure.  Thank you!

Rosanna, Happy Listener

 

This award celebrates the boundless hard work of Mariele Runacre Temple in creating and evolving The Wireless Theatre Company into a cauldron of excellence of new and exciting radio drama.

I found your website accidentally. In this short time I listened to some of your short plays which I found absoloutely alluring. I am a newcomer to writing for the radio in my own country ( Iran ) your works are truly inspiring to me. I just listened to Dream Me a Winter - which was sort of a new and provocative piece of art in my opinion. The mix of those 3 palls reminds me the daily arguiments with my friends - it taught me how to think about the radio drama abilities in diferent aspects. It was sharp and rude, but at the same time it has something soft in the inner layers.... thank you again

Great site, fantastic stuff on here, I'm passing the word round as fast as I can.

Laurence, Happy Listener

 

As a very longtime fan of oldtime radio I must compliment the fellow artists (and staff!!) that have brought these swell productions which are modern yet retain the old time flavor of the golden days of yesteryear!!

Rich Wretch, New York City

 

Bloody Marvellous!

Surfed the rest but have got to the best. Great find!

As someone who grew up with radio drama instead of television, I cannot even begin to tell you how delighted I was to come across your website. It's a dream come true for me, and I wish you the utmost sucess.
Esther Harper, Listener

 

This all looks good! Very good luck with it.
Michael Kitchen, Actor

 

Really enjoyed Lie Detector. Great to hear such quality outside Radio 4. Keep them coming!
Niall K, Dublin

 

I must say this is very foward thinking in the age of copyright abuses and legislations... Art needs to be heard! Kudos!
P Avader, Listener

 

Good luck with the company, sounds great!
Alison Steadman, Actress 

 

Superior sound, the finest quality audio I have heard on the net.
Nathan Hughes, Listener

 

How fortunate I am to find such a fine website. I have been looking for an audiobook site and yours comes like a breath of fresh air. Thanks to all concerned.
Ronald Lacey, Listener

 

Your plays and your site look very interesting, we shall all have a listen. 
Big Finish Productions 

 

Although others come close, yours is the best-quality audio theatre I've heard on the internet. It rivals and even surpasses commercial productions, which is a welcome rarity.
Kevin Donnelly, San Francisco

 

The Wireless Theatre Company are, just as advertised, a true audio theatre company, bringing interesting audio plays put together by a talented crew without the boundries of format or genre. If one of their shows isn't your cup of tea, the next one is bound to be completely different. Great stuff.
Decoder Ring Theatre

 

I've been to your site and I'm very impressed.  You've accomplished quite a bit in a very short time.  I'm a big fan of audio drama and I love the fact the internet has brought about a revitalization of this powerful art form.  Straight voice acting -- creating an image, a feeling, and an emotional reponse in the listener -- is a very "pure" form of acting and listening to audio drama is a surprsingly intimate experience.

I can highly recommend The Wireless Theatre Comapny. They've got some amazing plays and stories to download - this is top-notch writing, acting and production, with a modern style and stories to make you think. More please!

What a wonderful site!

I have been looking for radio stories to listen to on my downtime. They are far and few in between on the internet, among them though was your site which was prominent in my search. I have listened to 3-4 plays and was impressed with the production quality. The sound work in Frozen had me hooked! I love your website and what it offers to listeners! Definitely I am a fan! Here in the States, England has a reputation for being the best in radio production. Definately, from your plays I've listened to so far, this holds true. I've seen not only the main Wireless Theatre Company site, but also the MySpace site.

Just came back to see if you had added any more plays. Really pleased to see you had. Listened to Ariadne and Leonora and The Dating Game. Top notch. Thank you!!
Richard Bowers, Kingston upon Thames

 

I think that this is such a great site for new writing and for getting theatre out to people in a accessible way.
Danielle Fenemore

 

I have been trying to find a company for a long time that produces audio plays!
Nici Spencer, UK

 

Just downloaded and listened to Frozen and Lie Detector, really enjoyed them both. Production quality is excellent. The added bonus being that is was free to download both plays. Thank you for an entertaining afternoons listening. Please inform me of new material when it's available.
Richard Bowers, Kingston Upon Thames

 

Just listened to Lie Detector - really loved it! Well done to you guys, it's such a good piece of writing, lends itself really well to audio and with the added bonus of two very strong performances it really is a great piece of work. You should be very proud.
Clare Whitehouse, Horsham
