CBS Radio Workshop was a revival of the Columbia Workshop series from the late thirties, serving as an experimental platform for actors, writers, and technicians to produce scripts that sponsors might deem too risky. The show was known for its cutting-edge writing, music, and sound, garnering appreciation from radio personnel and listeners alike. The series alternated between the west and east coast production centers and was dedicated to man's imagination, as it explored the theater of the mind.

The series aired from January 27, 1956, until September 22, 1957, on CBS, and all 86 episodes still exist today. The revival was initiated by William Froug, a CBS vice president, who pitched the idea to Howard Barnes. Their first program was an adaptation of Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World," narrated by Huxley himself and announced by William Conrad. The CBS Radio Workshop was one of the last attempts of American network radio to hold onto radio demographics after the emergence of television. Some notable writers whose work was adapted for the series included John Cheever, Robert A. Heinlein, Sinclair Lewis, H. L. Mencken, Edgar Allan Poe, Christopher Isherwood, Frederik Pohl, James Thurber, Mark Twain, and Thomas Wolfe.
