Yes, Virginia, there is a radio play:  Montclair's Studio Players present a virtual production of the iconic tale.

A young girl writes a letter to the editor of the New York Sun. “Dear Editor, I am eight years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says if you see it in the Sun, it’s so. Please tell me the truth. Is there a Santa Claus?” Ed Mitchell, the editor, assigns Frank Church—a reporter on the verge of self destruction—the task of answering Virginia’s question. Church’s quest and reply have become one of the world’s most quoted and beloved editorials.

The play is streamed twice:  December 19 and December 23 at 7:30pm Eastern, 6:30pm Central, 4:30pm Pacific.
