The Moonlight Audio Theatre podcast is a medley of classic and modern audio dramas. The podcast is one of the pioneers of the re-emergence of radio dramas.

The podcast attracts listeners from many countries. The stories fall across mystery, horror, sci-fi, fantasy, comedy, and other genres
.Canadian producer Farquhar started the podcast in 2011. He released twelve free downloadable dramas. His goal then was for Moonlight Audio Theatre to be the hub for the best audio dramas. The early content came from his production company, Voices in the Wind Audio Theatre. He has since expanded to include content from other audio drama companies from different parts of the world. That element makes the podcast a depot for diverse and entertaining dramas.

They give life to famous characters from Sherlock Holmes to Jane Eyre. Tom Konkle is one such actor who appears in many episodes of the podcast. He also writes, produces, and directs some of the dramas.
Some featured stories are Blood Has Sticky Fingers and Wuthering Heights. Others include 'Twas The Night Before Christmas, Anything to Oblige, and The Day of the Martians. Some episodes feature classics from as far back as the 1920s.
