Family Radio Theatre?

Post by Frodo »

Does anyone listen to it sometimes? We do. If there is only Connie and Mitch to listen to on Oddessy.

This belongs in the Harlequin Theatre

Haha, do you have something against Connie and Mitch episodes? ;)

I've heard several of FoTF's Radio Theatre productions, including:

At Home in Mitford
- An extremely loong series, as the running time is about 6.5 hours. Almost has an Odyssey feel to it, as you learn to appreciate the various characters around Mitford.

Father Gilbert
- Who doesn't love a good mystery? I think I've listened to all seven: A Soul in Tourment, Where the Heart Is, Dead Air, Healing, Secrets, The Play's the Thing, and Lady. Each episode is anywhere from 60-80 minutes long.

Les Misérables
- I thoroughly enjoyed this radio dramatization. I've read an abbreviated version of the book, and I've watched the film, but listening to the story unfold was just as enjoyable. Definitely recommended for those who haven't heard it yet . . . and even those who already have. ;) Running time is nearly 3 hours.

The Luke Reports I: Child Of Promise
- I've listened to fragments of the Luke Reports here and there but I can't say I recall much from what I heard. 8-[

We haven't listened to many. I think we heard

'At the Back of the North Wind'
'Silas Marner'
'Anne of Green Gables'
'Little Women'

I never liked the sound of Father Gilbert mysterys, they sound a bit wierd; spiritual intuition? Curses?


No we don't like the Connie and Mitch episodes

I listen just about every week. Anymore I listen to them on CD, especially when I am out. Listening in the car makes time go alot faster.

I love Radio Theatre. We have Anne Of Green Gable's, 2 Father Gilberts, and all of the Narnia series! I have not listened to the Narnia's but, the rest are great!

I've really enjoyed the FOTF Radio Theatre that I've heard, and I would like to get more of their productions.

I have Chronicles of Narnia (all 7), all 3 sets of Father Gilbert, Anne of Green Gables, Les Miserables and A Christmas Carol. They are so enjoyable! It's a great way to hear stuff that I might not actually read, like Les Mis, too.

We own a bunch of them and always wait for them to come out on CD. I've only listen to one of them on the net and that was Father Gilbert in Dead Air.

Billy Bud, the Sailor is playing for the next 3 weeks. It is not on Oneplace though. I thought I would just let you all now.
