RADIO MAN is officially making its debut this spring—and it’s bringing a haunting, emotional story of survival, connection, and humanity to downtown New York.
Running May 1–10, 2026, at The Paradise Factory, the new play from Sarah Groustra (founder of 1319 Press) invites audiences into a ravaged world where human voices are nearly extinct—and one mysterious radio signal might be the last thread tying people together.
A Story About Survival—and the Need to Connect
At its core, RADIO MAN follows two sisters and a wounded stranger navigating a broken world. With society stripped down to its bare essentials, the play explores what remains when everything else is gone: trust, memory, and the desperate need for human connection.
The discovery of a faint radio signal becomes the emotional and narrative heartbeat of the story—offering a glimmer of hope in an otherwise silent world.
As marketing producer Trey Sullivan puts it, the show is about “what survives when the world strips everything else away… and the ways we still reach for intimacy, connection, and for each other.”
Meet the Cast and Creative Team
Directed by Tatiana Baccari, the production brings together a dynamic cast:
- Mia Angelique
- Sophie Falvey
- Rachel Arianna
Behind the scenes, producers Dre Shapiro and Jon McLawhorn (Underbelly Theatre Co.), alongside Joelle Westwood and Trey Sullivan (Reaching Glory Productions), are continuing their commitment to championing new and original work in New York’s theater scene.
Why This Show Matters
In a time where connection often feels fleeting—even in a hyper-digital world—RADIO MAN taps into something deeply human: the fear of isolation and the hope of being heard.
It’s intimate, eerie, and emotionally charged—exactly the kind of storytelling that thrives in the Off-Off Broadway space.
