‘She Wrote Plays’ and WTJU Is Streaming Them

In early 2020, University of Virginia associate drama professor Doug Grissom was looking to buy some recording equipment. He had found a set of plays that female playwrights had written nearly 100 years ago, that begged to be adapted as audio dramas. He planned to do it on his own. But then the general manager of UVA’s WTJU radio station, Nathan Moore, reached out asking if he had any podcast ideas. Grissom pitched adapting the plays as audio dramas.
