The Screwtape Letters: First Ever Full-cast Dramatization of the Diabolical Classic (Radio Theatre)

From the award-winning audio drama team that brought you Radio Theatre’s Amazing Grace and The Chronicles of Narnia. In his enduringly popular masterpiece The Screwtape Letters, C. S. Lewis re-imagines Hell as a gruesome bureaucracy. With spiritual insight and wry wit, Lewis suggests that demons, laboring in a vast enterprise, have horribly recognizable human attributes: competition, greed, and totalitarian punishment. Avoiding their own painful torture as well as a desire to dominate are what drive demons to torment their “patients.”
The style and unique dark humor of The Screwtape Letters are retained in this full-cast dramatization, as is the original setting of London during World War II. The story is carried by the senior demon Screwtape played magnificently by award-winning actor Andy Serkis (“Gollum” in Lord of the Rings) as he shares correspondence to his apprentice demon Wormwood. All 31 letters lead into dramatic scenes, set in either Hell or the real world with humans―aka “the patient,” as the demons say―along with his circle of friends and family. This Radio Theatre release also stars Geoffrey Palmer (Tomorrow Never Dies), Laura Michelle Kelly (Sweeney Todd), Eileen Page (The Secret Garden), and other world-class actors.
Includes 10 new songs inspired by the classic book, four behind-the-scenes video documentary featurettes, and a 5.1 surround sound mix. Four CDs, approx. 4 hours total.

Powder River – Season Eight: A Radio Dramatization

The award-winning Colonial Radio Theatre’s long-running western series, Powder River, begins its 8th season with “A Single Bullet,” in which Jacob (James McLean) is finally promoted to Deputy of Clearmont, and his first day on the job proves to become one of the town’s darkest. Meanwhile, Doc (Lincoln Clark) is still struggling with guilt from the fire that destroyed his wife Millie’s (Diane Lind) General Store, Restaurant, and Hotel. He is driven to “The Point Of No Return,” and when he becomes a danger to himself and others, faces a show-down with Britt MacMasters (Jerry Robbins). In the episode “From The Ashes Will Rise,” the town of Clearmont discovers that through all the trials and tribulations, they will continue to survive, overcome adversity, and rebuild—on the foundation of their past. The season ends with the exciting two-part episode “The Prisoner Transfer,” as Sheriff Dawes (Joseph Zamparelli) and his new deputy, Cheyenne (Jack Libesco), take the killer Max Clegg (Adam Heroux) over dangerous territory to his hanging in Casper but soon find themselves being pursued by Clegg’s gang.
