Welcome to Theater for the Mind

Hello! And welcome to "Theater for the Mind", an exploration into the craft that is aural storytelling. Each episode we will explore something new and exciting, including the IA Theater, which is an improvisational audio drama.
Future releases will come on a non-scheduled basis. Since these often take a good amount of time to create, it would not be advantageous of the art-form to try and rush things. Our first episode comes from my audio theater course at Chapman University, titled "Triage"
Till next time!
