SURVIVAL ISN'T SILENT ✦ IF YOU'RE HEARING THIS YOU'RE NOT ALONE ✦

BY SARAH GROUSTRA

RADIO MAN by Sarah Groustra

In a ravaged world where human voices are nearly extinct, two sisters and a wounded stranger cling to survival, memory, and a mysterious radio broadcast that may be the last echo of connection left.

COMING TO PARADISE FACTORY MAY 2026.

  • “Rarely is a contemporary tragedy so well-structured that you experience that visceral, rock-in-the-gut, audible ‘OH NO’ moment that contextualizes the entire play and brings the themes into relief in sudden, stark detail. With that said, everything leading up to that disarming moment is an atmospheric treat, full of subtle apocalyptic worldbuilding that comes through bit by bit. Ultimately, this is a story about how very dangerous ignorance can be and why growth and development are so crucial to the business of humanity.”

    —Aly Kantor, Playwright

  • “Groustra has crafted an absolutely perfect post-apocalyptic play...I won't be able to stop thinking about that ending.”

    —Shaun Leisher, Producer/Dramaturg

  • “An absolute gut-punch knockout of a play. I'll be thinking about that ending for a very long time...”

    —Sophie McIntosh, Playwright
