A radio play that aired on WBAI in New York in 1978, Need to Know is a sound structure. With allusions to Sam Cooke and the socio-political upheaval of the era, this multi-voiced “Experimental Theatre of the Air” is alternately playful and, as promised by its title, urgently imperative. Radio play, WBAI, New York City.
