Prometheus Radio
Theater

Prometheus Radio Theatre, a group of experienced
Baltimore-area Fan actors, writers and directors, is
embarking on what we like to think is a bold, new path (then
again, maybe we're just deranged!) We're bringing original,
SF radio dramas to Fan audiences at area conventions, and we
plan to offer said dramas via CD and streaming audio in the
near future. Our current project is an episodic series, The
Arbiter Chronicles, which author Steve Wilson describes as
"a sort of Hornblower the Vampire Slayer in Space."
"Arbiters" tells the tale of young midshipmen (and women) in
a future Navy, when the human race has expanded off earth,
and things ain't as bright and cheerful as some might
expect.

group was first formed in 1999 by actor-writer Gregg Taylor
for a six part mini-series take on the adventure programs of
1940's radio. (see “Original Red Panda Mini-Series” below).
The programs were created as a pilot project for traditional
broadcast, and were quite broad and silly in the belief that
a comic approach might broaden their commercial potential,
but never made it to air. Taylor's next project returned to
the theatre, and was also radio-based, leading him to keep
using the “Decoder Ring” name.
