Something Wicked This Way Comes
Just finished listening to "Something Wicked This Way Comes" by Ray Bradbury - the full cast audio adaptation that was written by Ray Bradbury and produced and performed by The Colonial Radio Theater on the Air - released by Blackstone Audio, Inc.
Now as frequent readers of my reviews here on Facebook, Goodreads, and other web pages know - I'm still fighting the ban Amazon placed on me for daring to call a book anti-Semitic months ago - it sometimes takes me a while to get around to listening to and/or reading. I originally bought "Something Wicket This Way Comes" from Amazon back on July 8, 2013 and I've just finished listening to it a few days ago. As you've probably guessed, with literally hundreds of books, CDs, and DVDs, to read, watch, and/or listen to, sometimes it does take me a rather long while to get around to a book, CD, and/or DVD.
The Colonial Radio Theater on the Air players, under the always superb direction and leadership of the multi-talented Jerry Robbins, have with Ray Bradbury who wrote the script for this production, have created the absolutely most faithful adaptation of Ray Bradbury's haunting tale of childhood desires, adult longings and the manifestation of pure raw evil that tempts all those who come within its presence.
In "Something Wicked This way Comes," Bradbury shows how each generation in Greentown, Illinois is effected by the arrival of "Cooger and Dark's Pandemonium Shadow Show" - which visits the town about every 40 years -enough time for the memory of past visits to fade away in the realm of the town's collective conscience. The traveling carnival can make your deepest desire come true for a price - and soon Will Halloway and his best friend Jim Nightsade learn that discovering the secrets of "Cooger and Dark's Pandemonium Shadow Show comes with a price that not only may cost them their innocence, but also their very lives.
Jerry Robbins and The Colonial Radio Theatre on the Air Players do their usual resounding job of bringing "Something Wicked This Way Comes" to outstandingly vivid life that immediately grips you and keeps your attention until the final scene has concluded.
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!
TEN STARS!
