The Writers Guild of South Africa (WGSA) is pleased to share that member Aneesah Kader’s award-winning radio drama will be broadcast on SAfm on 8 August 2026 at 21:00.
The script earned third place in the SAfm Radio Drama Competition, a notable achievement that highlights the quality of South African writing and the continued relevance of audio storytelling as a creative medium.
Radio drama occupies a unique space within the storytelling landscape, relying on dialogue, performance and sound design to transport audiences into richly imagined worlds. Competitions such as the SAfm Radio Drama Competition play an important role in recognising writers who excel in crafting stories specifically for audio audiences.
The upcoming broadcast offers listeners the opportunity to experience Aneesah’s work and celebrate the contribution of South African writers to the country’s cultural and creative industries.
WGSA is proud to see its members’ work reaching audiences across a variety of platforms and mediums, and we encourage our members and supporters to tune in and support this broadcast.
