Independent audio, built by storytellers
Make a Scene.
11th Hour Audio creates immersive productions, professional sound libraries, practical learning resources and one of audio drama’s longest-running collaborative events.
One home. Many ways to make.
Audio storytelling is bigger than a single genre.
11th Hour Audio grew out of horror, but the work has always been larger than that. We make and champion fiction, documentary, comedy, science fiction, fantasy, mystery and stories that refuse to fit neatly into a box. What connects it all is craft: writing worth hearing, performances that feel alive and sound that puts the listener inside the scene.
