The oceans of the world are no longer safe. Ships are being attacked and sunk by what survivors describe as a giant sea monster. The United States Government sends the frigate Abraham Lincoln to investigate, carrying renowned scientist Pierre Aronnax in hopes of solving the mystery. They soon encounter the "sea monster", which is actually a submarine, far advanced than anything the world has ever seen - commanded by Captain Nemo.
The award winning Colonial Radio Theatre on the Air presents this spectacular production of the Jules Verne classic, complete with a full cast, sound effects, and a breathtaking score by Jeffrey Gage.
Starring J.T. Turner, Allan Mayo, Joseph Zamparelli, Robin Gabrielli, and the Colonial Radio Players

From the acclaimed master of action and suspense. The all-time classic. Millions of pounds in gold bullion are being pirated in the Irish Sea. Investigations by the British Secret Service, and a sixth sense, have bought Philip Calvert to a bleak, lonely bay in the Western Highlands. But the sleepy atmosphere of Torbay is deceptive. The place is the focal point of many mysterious disappearances. Even the unimaginative Highland Police Sergeant seems to be acting a part. But why?

Story
From the acclaimed master of action and suspense. The all-time classic. Millions of pounds in gold bullion are being pirated in the Irish Sea. Investigations by the British Secret Service, and a sixth sense, have bought Philip Calvert to a bleak, lonely bay in the Western Highlands. But the sleepy atmosphere of Torbay is deceptive. The place is the focal point of many mysterious disappearances. Even the unimaginative Highland Police Sergeant seems to be acting a part. But why?

Story
Gary Paulsen takes listeners along on his maiden voyage, proving that ignorance can be bliss. Also really stupid and incredibly dangerous. He tells of boats that owned him, good, bad, and beloved, and how they got him through terrifying storms that he survived by sheer luck. His spare prose conjures up shark surprises and killer waves as well as moonlight on the sea, and makes listeners feel what it’s like to sail under the stars or to lie at anchor in a tropical lagoon where dolphins leap, bathed in silver.

Surpassed my expectations
This is a difficult story to get right due to the subtle nuances of the characters involved. The cast for this presentation was spot on and the accents very well performed. It develops the intrigue of Captain Nemo so faithfully and does an outstanding job of exploring the undertones in Jules Verne’s book. A great adventure with a good dose of catharsis exploring human nature.

Another outstanding CRT production!
While the story has been around a long time, the chance to experience it through a radio dramatization brings it different life. You get to create the images in your mind. Outstanding sound effects and music.
