BBC Radio adaptation

A BBC Radio adaptation transforms a written story—such as a novel, play, or other literary work—into a radio format suitable for broadcast. This process involves scripting the original material into a dialogue-driven program, often with sound effects, music, and voice acting to create an immersive experience. The goal is to maintain the essence and themes of the original while leveraging audio elements to engage listeners. Adaptations can range from brief readings to full-cast dramatizations, allowing audiences to experience the story through sound alone, making literature accessible and compelling in an audio medium.
