Re-Imagined Radio

When I heard my story adapted and produced by Re-Imagined Radio with professional actors, it pretty much blew my mind. You all brought the story to life, with voices that seemed spot-on. It captured the spirit far beyond what I expected. The sound effects and music really added to it. Your work is vital these days - oral stories bring history (and fiction) alive.

Our station has two groups of listeners — one for the morning political talk, the other for the afternoon music programming. Your show serves as a unique palette cleanser between the two.

You know, it's a funny thing hearing your own work come back to you, but it's even more rare as a teacher to hear another educator and audio drama commentator like John Barber provide context, insight, and deft analysis along the way. Each month John and his team take you on a voyage of discovery using genre theme and an artist's eye to guide you through the experience.

Where has this show been? Re-Imagined Radio is well worth my time. It is engaging and smart, well-produced. Radio needs more of this.

The result of all this is a more than an adaptation of my novel. It's a unique and new and different work, an unprecedented work, in a different medium, created by John and Marc and Re-Imagined Radio, and it's a living work offered in tandem with my novel online, where you can choose to Read or Listen to Figurski at Findhorn on Acid.

Kiggins and Re-Imagined Radio have been partnering to produce live “storytelling with sounds” performances since 2013! The Kiggins staff have enjoyed working with John and his team to produce some truly world-class and entertaining performances. We look forward to another decade as Kiggins enters its 90th year!

I've been working with John Barber and Reimagined Radio for the better part of 15 years, I guess. Time flies when you're having fun. I really support John and the Reimagined Radio crew in their mission of sound-based storytelling, or as some people like to say, nothing to see but everything to hear. John's been a great producer to work with.

I was thrilled when John Barber and Mark Rose suggested that two of my short mystery stories would work well on reimagined radio. But even better than listening to my stories on the radio, which was an incredible experience, was working with reimagined radio to create the world I'd imagined through sound. The actors, the direction, the sound effects and production, it was all top notch. Even the promotional graphics were so good that I shared them far and wide.
