This month we go all the way back to 1993 and the Little Five Points community coffeehouse where our listeners enjoyed monthly performances from ARTC. Many of our most memorable series were born here as the writers frantically tried to keep up with this breakneck pace in live performance, including the Adventures of the Crimson Hawk, Rory Rammer Space Marshal, and Bumpers Crossroads. We bring you now two episodes of daniel taylor’s gripping serial of the little town that time forgot, beginning with The Traffic Light and concluding with The Developer.

Hey, folks, technical difficulties are forcing me to post this week’s installment without intro or outro crediting information. Hopefully this is just temporary, but we’ll see.
This week’s episode is from an extremely recent show. Like this past weekend. Yes, from December 8, 2007 at 4pm to be exact, we present “Cut-Out Christmas” by Thomas E. Fuller, adapted for audio by Daniel Taylor and featuring the voices of Veronica Byrd and Burt Tanner. Foley effects created by Sonya with Caran Wilbanks. Music by Brad Weage.

Welcome to part three, the final chapter of our 2001 Dragon*Con performance of Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett, adapted for audio by David Benedict, featuring John Rhys-Davies as Lupine Wonse.
I hope everyone has been enjoying hearing this as much as I enjoyed adapting it. Being able to share it with a mass audience has brought back a lot of the enthusiasm I had when I was working on the project originally. I occasionally felt as though I were summoning dragons myself as I constructed them out of pure sound.
As part of this production, ARTC made a donation to the Orangutan Foundation International, an organization dedicated to the preservation of the orangutan and its natural habitat.

Welcome to part two of our 2001 Dragon*Con performance of Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett, adapted for audio by David Benedict, featuring John Rhys-Davies as Lupine Wonse.
As I mentioned last week, the adaptation for this production was particularly difficult. It is a full-length novel, rich with character development, humor, plots and subplots, and is considered by many to be a fine starting point for those wishing to get into the Discworld series. When compressing it down into an hour, most of that stuff had to go out the window. When we read the first draft it took over two hours and we didn’t finish. That’s when I knew I had my work cut out for me.
For those of you who have read the original book, I agonized over the scene with the prospective dragon hunters who were all complaining about how you don’t get respect from monsters anymore and how one monster’s mother actually came round to complain after he was killed and his head put up over the door. For those of you who haven’t, don’t think this adaptation even begins to cover the depth of this book. Read it.
