The Code Of Woosters36 reviews
P. G. Wodehouse

L a Theatre Works, 1998

This, as Bertram Wooster might say, is the right stuff!
An early critic of P.G. Wodehouse complained that his second book was identical to his first, only the character names had changed. In response, Wodehouse resolved to continue writing identical stories, but to keep his character names the same. And so, The Code of the Woosters is nearly identical to all other Jeeves and Wooster novels; Bertie gets into a sticky situation, inadvertently makes ...
  
  











  



  
Great Classic Stories: 22 Unabridged Classics4 reviews
Derek Jacobi, Rosalind Ayres, ...

BBC Audiobooks America, 2006

A real listening pleasure
I enjoy the varied readers of these English and American Gothic masterpieces.The readers have achieved a fine balance between dramatization and plain reading. Although some of the British authors are new to me, especially the wickedly witty, Saki, I have not read several of the old Gothic American stories since high school English class, so they return as a surprise to me when heard in a more ...
  
  











  



  
The Essential King James Bible: Complete Stories from the Old and New Testaments2 reviews

Audio Partners, 2002

Excellent voices and "acting out".
Martin Jarvis and Rosalind Ayres give a captivating account of the ESSENCE or essential stories of the Old and especially New Testaments. It is a must for those who don't have the time to read the whole Bible and put the various Books of the Bible in chronological order as you read it. Even if you have read the whole Bible or are going to read it, you must listen to this audio to put it all ...

An Ideal Husband (Audio Theatre Series)16 reviews
Miriam Margolyes

L. A. Theatre Works, 1997

Chiltern: "You prefer to be natural?"
Chevely: "Sometimes. But it is such a difficult pose to keep up." Perhaps not so well known as "The Importance of Being Earnest," this has all the same banter, manners, and sharp-eyed look at the crumbling edge of the upper crust in Vistorian England. It pleases the attentive listener at many levels. Considered only as a stream of one-liners and clever quips, it delivers all you could ask for. ...
  
  











  



  
A Pocket Full of Rye: A Miss Marple Mystery1 review
Agatha Christie, Rosalind Ayres

BBC Audiobooks America, 2007

Top Notch, Dame Agatha!
I immensely enjoyed this audiobook. I bought it in the cassette version, and it performed perfectly. My daughter also enjoyed it. Full of Dame Agatha's interesting characters, and in classic Christie style, it kept me guessing 'who done it' right up to the end. Miss Marple was the initial Christie character that got me interested in her mysteries; not the performances of Joan Hixson(I have never ...

Sweeney Todd and the String of Pearls: an Audio Melodrama in Three Despicable Acts2 reviews
Yuri Rasovsky

Blackstone Audio Inc., 2007

Delightful, ghoulish audio theatre!
This is audio theatre at its best! AudioFile rates it as one of the best new releases - "A blackly humorous melodrama." Most people know the tale of the murderous barber and his partner in crime, Mrs Lovett, the local meat pie producer. This is a delightful retelling of the tale based on the original Victorian "Penny Dreadful" - stories released in serial form in a London rag. This ...

The "Mary, Queen Of Scots" Play Used In "Anne Of Avonlea"

A Caribbean Mystery: A Miss Marple Mystery1 review

BBC Audiobooks America, 2006

Ok late Miss Marple Mystery
This novel was written late in Agatha Christie's career when she was already well into her seventies. So, not too surprisingly, it's not as good as the novels written during her prime from the late 1920s through the mid-1940s. The book is a little short, at about 220 pages and somewhat sketchily written. Christie was never a great one for extensive descriptions of her settings, but here she ...

Betrayal10 reviews
Harold Pinter

L.A. Theatre Works, 2002

One of the best plays ever written
One of the best plays I've read, if not the best. I've spent three months directing this play, and I wouldn't have invested that time if it hadn't meant a lot to me. Let me add that I could not have asked for a better run. We blew away at least some of the audience every night -- had the whole audience leaning forward on the edge of their seats (never seen that before in a theatre!), had ...

Bryony Lavery

La Theatre Works, 2006

Strange and Haunting
Overal, this play is really good. It's written in a poetic and experimental form that makes it hard to understand in the beginning, but pretty soon the pieces start to come together. The play looks into the mind of a serial killer. You get the view of the mother of the victim, and the view of the professional pyschologist, as well as the killer himself.. who kind of suffers from a handicap, ...
