Lux Radio Theatre

Only Angels Have Wings

by

Lux Radio Theatre brings popular films and stage works to radio, presenting them as polished dramatic adaptations. This broadcast features Only Angels Have Wings, a story set among the pilots and ground crew of a small South American air-freight company, where dangerous flights and close-knit relationships shape daily life.

The program turns the source material into a self-contained radio drama, using dialogue, music, and sound effects to convey the action and atmosphere. Listeners can follow the characters through the pressures of their work and the personal tensions that accompany a life built around risk.

With its cinematic storytelling and ensemble performance, Lux Radio Theatre offers a chance to hear a familiar screen story reimagined for the ear, balancing adventure with human drama.
