The Campbell Playhouse

Holiday Greeting Cards

English · Dramatic Readings, Drama

The Campbell Playhouse brings dramatic radio storytelling to the air, presenting plays performed by a company of actors. Its productions draw on a range of material, including adaptations of established works and original radio drama, with performances shaped for the intimacy and immediacy of sound.

Orson Welles is closely associated with the series as its host and a leading performer. The program’s theatrical approach combines spoken performance with music and sound effects, creating scenes and atmosphere through voices and audio rather than visuals. The title “Holiday Greeting Cards” suggests a seasonal subject for this installment.

The result is a polished, stage-minded listening experience: literary drama and radio performance brought together in a format that lets dialogue, character, and sound carry the story.
