BBC Radio 4 adaptation

A BBC Radio 4 adaptation is a produced version of a literary work, such as a novel, play, or short story, specifically created to be broadcast on Radio 4. It involves transforming the original material into a scripted audio format, often featuring actors, sound effects, and music to bring the story to life through sound alone. These adaptations aim to preserve the essence of the original while making it accessible and engaging for radio audiences, offering an immersive listening experience that can reach a broad and diverse audience.
