Radio drama in Japan has a history as long as that of radio broadcasting in that country which began in 1925. Some consider the first Japanese radio drama to have been Kirihitoha (桐一葉 The Falling Paulownia Leaf) which was a radio broadcast of a stage play. Others consider the Japanese translation of Richard Hughes’s Danger or Tankō no Naka (炭坑の中 Down the coal pit) to be the first true radio drama to be broadcast in Japan.
