The Marriage was a light-hearted radio show that revolved around the lives of Ben Marriott, a New York lawyer, and his wife Liz, a former buyer for a New York department store. The show often focused on Liz's struggles to adjust to her new role as "just a housewife" and the couple's problems with their children. The unique format of the show had Ben, played by Hume Cronyn, and Liz, played by Jessica Tandy, alternating narration week by week, providing different perspectives on the Marriott family's life.

The show aired on the NBC network from October 4, 1953, until March 28, 1954, after being adapted from the Broadway play The Four Poster, in which Cronyn and Tandy had previously appeared. A total of 26 episodes were produced, and later, a television series of the same name was created in 1954, also starring Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy. The TV series only lasted for eight episodes, after receiving warm reviews. The scripts for the radio series were primarily written by Ernest Kinoy, and the closing theme was "A Star Is Born" by Robert Farnon. The cast of the radio show also included Denise Alexander as the couple's awkward teenage daughter, Emily.
