A growing body of evidence investigates how entertainment education influences knowledge about HIV, stigma toward those with HIV, and openness to disclosing one’s HIV status. The present study shows that in addition to these effects, mass media interventions may influence audiences’ policy priorities, such as their demand for local access to HIV/AIDS medical care. A condensed (2 hours) version of a popular Swahili radio drama was presented to rural Tanzanians as part of a placebo-controlled experiment, clustered at the village level. A random sample comprising 1,200 participants were interviewed at baseline and invited to attend a presentation of the radio drama, and 83% attended. Baseline respondents were reinterviewed 2 weeks later with a response rate of 95%. In addition to increasing listeners’ knowledge and support for disclosure of HIV status, the radio drama produced sizable and statistically significant effects on listeners’ preference for hypothetical candidates promising improved HIV/AIDS treatment.

Radio drama was a quintessential source of entertainment for Canadian audiences during the Second World War, and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) used the art form to distribute propaganda and garner support for the Canadian war effort. Similarly, CBC radio drama became an essential artistic outlet for artists and composers to articulate their political beliefs to a national audience. This article frames Canadian composer John Weinzweig’s works for the CBC radio drama series New Homes for Old (1941) within the socio-political climate of the 1930s and 1940s and suggests that radio drama provided Weinzweig with a national soapbox for his radical socialist ideals during a time of political upheaval. My research draws on archival materials from Library and Archives Canada, the CBC Music Library Archives, and Concordia’s Centre for Broadcasting and Journalism Studies to build upon the biographical work of Elaine Keillor and Brian Cherney. I establish Weinzweig’s socialist ties and argue that his political leanings prompted him to simplify his serial language in favour of a simplified modernist aesthetic, which appealed to Canada’s conservative wartime audiences. This study of Weinzweig’s radio works reveals how the composer desired to make serial compositions accessible and palatable, and shows how he incorporated vernacular idioms such as folk songs and national anthems as foils to the elitist European serial aesthetic. In doing so, I show how Weinzweig uses a powerful and pervasive medium to promote his unique compositional style and also to reflect the cultural, political, and aesthetic ideals of leftist socialism.

The main objective of this article is to give a contextualization of radio drama in Spain, over a period of three decades in the last century, between the 1940s and the 1970s. Through retrospective analysis on its history some of the keys related to narrative and drama genres implementation are assessed. The research methodology used can be classified as theoretical-conceptual, since it has been based on the search, compilation and analysis of documentation that have allowed radio theater to be contextualized in those three decades. As a result of the research, the relationship between radio plays and social context is revealed and the contributions of the main Spanish authors and directors of radio drama in those decades are referenced. The final conclusion points to the fact that radio drama throughout radio history has been appearing and disappearing conditioned by programmers and public demand. Despite this, even by the end of the seventies, when radio programmers stood up for informative content, some radio dramatic serials would continue in the radio programming: La Saga de los Porretas (Cadena SER) or Sobrenatural and Historias (RNE). Keywords: Radio; Radio Drama; Radio Serials; Radio Soap Opera; Radio Fiction.

Radio advertisement assumed as very short radio drama, only in a matter of second in duration. Nevertheless, as same as radio drama, a radio advertisement has a structure such as characterization, plot, theme, setting, and dialog as well, where the dramatic aspect of radio advertisement occurred. It contains conflict as the essence of drama, suspense, and foreshadowing. From fifteen sample of radio advertisement, it found that theme is not identical with the advertized product. The ads using linear plot, characterization and setting is not always clear due to the limited time available to explain the characterization and setting in question. In general, radio advertisement using non-formal language. The dramatic aspect of an advertisement is very important since it where the advertisement able to attract its audience. To achieve such dramatic attraction, conflict is build based on theme with the dialog or monolog. Furthermore, suspense and foreshadowing often appear altogether. Words or sentences to express foreshadowing, often speak out in certain pattern, which create suspense. Theoretical understanding and practical exercises of the theatre happen to be very useful in the making of radio advertisement. The theoretical aspect of the theatre, such as playwriting and text analysis can used in preparing the advertisement's text, while the practical one, such as breathing exercise, vocal, and audio acting is needed in creating the ready on air radio advertisement. Key words: dramatic aspect, advertisement's structure, plot, characterization, theme, setting, dialog, conflict, foreshadowing, suspense.
