Radio drama ‘An Adventure on the Farm’

The lockdown meant we had to suspend activities at our ‘’ Community Centre for the Elderly and think about the best ways to adapt them for an online setting. And the drama group had a brilliant idea! How about taking a trip down memory lane to the days of radio dramas?

The radio drama ‘An Adventure on the Farm’ was produced by the British Charitable Foundation () , directed by Professor *Victória di Paula*, edited by Thayanni Almeida and Guilherme Comparone, and starring the class participants: Cleide Ultramari, Maria de Fátima Borges, Rubens Poentes, Silvia Cassilha and Suzanne Bries.

How to listen to the radio drama ‘

We think the result turned out really well and deserves to be shared.

That’s why we’ve created a podcast channel on Spotify where the first episode has already been published: FBB’s Spotify channel

You can also listen via the Anchor FM platform:

It’s well worth a listen (and please help us expand the reach of this project)! ❤️

Over the next few days we’ll be publishing the next episodes, so just follow our account to be notified.
