    The second of four novels by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle featuring famed detective Sherlock Holmes, The Sign of the Four is set in London but has its origins in colonial India. Four men in Agra make a pact to share the proceeds of a stolen treasure, but they are deceived by a fifth, who finds and takes the loot back to England and hides it. A decade on, young Mary Morstan receives the first of several lustrous pearls in the post - a mysterious gift delivered to her on the same date for several years. She finds her way to Holmes' apartment on Baker Street to seek his advice after receiving a letter from a stranger, instructing her to go to the Lyceum theatre to learn something to her benefit.    Audio edited by Cate Barratt ungekürzt.

    Antigone by Sophocles. Translated by Sir George Young. Presented by the Online Stage. Sophocles (497 BC-406 BC), Aeschylus, and Euripides formed a trio of ancient Greek tragedians whose works represent the foundation of the Western tradition of classic drama. Of the more than 100 plays written by Sophocles, seven have survived to the present day. Perhaps the most famous of these are the three that are now known as the Theban plays: Oedipus the King, Oedipus at Colonus, and Antigone. After the death of their father, Oedipus, Antigone and Ismene return to Thebes. The ruler is their unyielding uncle by marriage, Creon, who assumed command after the death of the sons of Oedipus, Eteocles, and Polynices in a fratricidal struggle to take control of the city. Creon has the body of one brother buried with full civic honors but forbids the burial of the body of the other, whom he regards as a traitor. Antigone's challenge to Creon's decree, which she considers unjust, results in the extinction of the family line of Oedipus. Cast: Libby Stephenson as Antigone, Amanda Friday as Ismene, Alan Weyman as Creon, Marty Kris as First Senator, Peter Tucker as Sentinel, Jennifer Fournier as Haemon, John Burlinson as Tiresias, K. G.Cross as Messenger in Attendance on Creon, Cate Barratt as Eurydice; Chorus performed by Brett Downey, Elizabeth Klett, Ed Humpal, and Cate Barratt; stage directions read by Grace Garrett. ungekürzt.

    The premier Russian dramatist before Chekov, Alexander Ostrovsky was one of the first masters of realistic theatre. A typical example of his approach to drama, A Protégée of the Mistress is almost cinematic in its presentation. The action is represented by a series of vivid snapshots, in which Ostrovsky quickly and subtly illustrates the foibles and weaknesses of each character, and shows how they are forced into a hostile dependence on each other. A recurring theme of Ostrovsky's plays is the uneasy balance between social utility and moral rectitude, which is encapsulated in this bitter comedy in the character of Madam Ulanbekov, wealthy landowner and relentless guardian of young wards, whom she forces into marriages of convenience as she sees fit. Cast Madam Ulanbekov - Cate Barratt Leonid - David Prickett Vasalisa Peregrinovna - Michele Eaton Potapych and Negligentov - John Burlinson Nadya - Charlotte Duckett Gavrilovna - Maureen Boutilier Peasant girl and Grisha - Becca Maggie Liza - Leanne Yau Stage directions read by Grace Garrett. ungekürzt.

    The Raven Edition, Volume Five: Poetry and Drama Narrated by Bob Gonzalez, Jennifer Fournier, Cate Barratt, and Denis Daly.  The Raven Edition of the works of Edgar Allan Poe (1809 – 1849) presents his complete literary output in five volumes. In addition to 11 prose pieces, volume five contains all of Poe’s verse and also his only play, the unfinished drama, "Politian". Poe’s poetic output consists of 54 pieces, most of them short, but it also includes four longer pieces, The Bells, Al Aaraaf, Tamerlane, and perhaps Poe’s most iconic poem, The Raven.  The first installment of "Politian" was published in 1835, but, due to discouraging reviews, Poe decided not to complete the play. The plot is based on the Kentucky Incident of 1825, in which Solomon Sharp, attorney general of Kentucky, was assassinated by Jereboam Beauchamp, who accused Sharp of being the father of an illegitimate child borne some years before by Beauchamp’s wife, Anna Cooke. Beauchamp was later hanged and Cooke died as the result of a suicide attempt. Poe transferred the setting to 16th-century Rome and made Politian an aristocrat, rather than an elected official.  ungekürzt. Language: English.
