Summary

Small, innocuous, it-doesn’t-really-hurt-anyone crimes spiral wildly out of control. Innocent white lies turned dark and terrifying in their consequences. Playing these ordinary people are extraordinary stars including John Dehner, Charles Laughton, Howard Duff, Rosalind Russell, Dick Powell, Ray Milland, Gregory Peck, Sheldon Leonard, Vincent Price, Dana Andrews, William Bendix, Lena Horne, Orson Welles, Ed Gardner, and more.

NBC University Theater: Babylon Revisited
Summary
NBC University Theater initially started in Chicago with a remit to bring adaptations of classic novels, usually Anglo-American, to a radio audience. Additionally, if listeners signed up, they received college credit to a radio-assisted correspondence course. A study guide, The Handbook of the World's Great Novels, was available for 25 cents. In its later years, it also included short stories and plays and went on to win the distinguished Peabody award. Unlike many other radio shows, University Theater did not pursue glamorous stars for its productions but instead relied on excellent distillations of the novels and first-class acting alongside high production values. But now it is time to enjoy these timeless novels. Let’s begin.
