THE TIME MACHINE

Two tales of time-travel are dramatized by the Atlanta Radio Theatre: Wells’s story of the visit of the traveler to the land of the Eloi and Brad Strickland’s “A Glitch in Time,” in which a research experiment goes awry. The latter selection is the stronger of the two; in a two-character drama, the actors give performances that are fresh, alive and emotionally true. In the Wells story, the performance of the traveler is overshadowed by the annoying, high-pitched voices fashioned for the Eloi. M.A.M. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN 97]
