Robinson and more.

More about it

Originally recorded live in 2006 at the LosCon 33 convention in Los Angeles, The Adventures of Rick Deckard: Blade Runner is realized on stage by a cast of eight performers called the Lux Theater, recreating 20 golden-age actors, with live foley sound effects and in front of an audience in the style of radio dramas long gone.

The show was aired on the internet radio website SCIFI Radio (formerly known as Krypton Radio) in June of 2017, to coincide with the 35th anniversary of the release of Ridley Scott’s 1982 film Blade Runner.

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
