A radio play, Charm, A Sonata in Three Movements, is a meditation on the privileged upbringing of artist Rachel Rosenthal with the backdrop of the Nazi march to war in late 1930's Paris, based on Rosenthal's 1977 performance of the same name.

"This performance of Charm is dedicated to my father and mother, Leonard and Mara Rosenthal, and to all the members of my family killed in the Holocaust and World War II."

Charm was co-produced by High Performance and Jacki Apple for Soundings on KPFK Pacifica Radio with assistance from KPFK and the National/State/County Partnership. Executive producer of Soundings: Jacki Apple. Associate producer of HP Audio: Nathan Birnbaum.

Charm, was originally performed live only one time at Mt. St. Mary's College Art Gallery on January 28th, 1977.  A copy of the text can be found in Rachel Rosenthal's Book - Rachel's Brain and Other Storms - an anthology of 13 performance texts.
