Orson Welles called Lucille Fletcher’s 1943 classic noir radio play about a woman who overhears a plot for murder, “the greatest single radio script ever written”. This gripping tale of suspense will keep modern listeners riveted as they follow Mrs. Stevenson’s journey to foil the plot. Will she succeed? The original broadcast of this play on May 25, 1943, was selected for inclusion in the National Recording Registry by the U.S. Library of Congress for being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.
