THIS DAY IN CRT HISTORY

TODAY IN CRT HISTORY - Foley recording was completed for KING SOLOMON'S MINES -- battle cries, war chants, safari singing, crowd background.

The late Mike Kaplan directed the "Zulu work chants" and they turned out great - we used them again in the sequel a few years later. Marcia Friedman recorded punch-in lines earlier in the week for "Gagool" and with that - recording on the production was completed.

Editing had already begun, and the show was shipped to the publishers the following month. KING SOLOMON'S MINES - finished production on this date, TEN YEARS AGO. Mar. 23, 2008. It remains one of our most popular titles.

KING SOLOMON'S MINES

LET IT SNOW

Sorry for not posting - we've been dodging snowstorms and nor'easters here in Boston, and lost our internet for a few days (snow is not always light and fluffy).

We have some CD news! Not everyone is a fan of downloads, and while we originally discontinued our CD's in 2013, listener requests have brought them back.  Watch for these CRT productions coming soon on CD from Brilliance Audio!

Some more news -- In June we'll be recording six new episodes of THE ADVENTURES OF SGT. BILLY AND CORP. SAM - Starring "Boomtowns" Billy O'Brien and Sam Donato. We're expecting to release them late summer (August) - and the CD release of all 12 episodes will be out in the fall.

We're also returning to the works of the great Jules Verne with THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND - the exciting sequel to 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA - probably our best selling production based on a novel. We're hoping to record this in April. No release date set.

Those witches

Yep, we ask for your reviews here at CRT, but I must admit I was surprised to see a 1 star given to TICONDEROGA Season 3 on AMAZON because of an episode called THE WITCH - considered by the reviewer to be not acceptable for family listening. I'm sorry if you were offended; but every episode cannot be blood and thunder; witchcraft was a very serious and much feared thing in the 18th century; and I thought that it was a good story idea. The episode does not get into any black a...rts and it doesn't get preachy or have any hidden message -- in fact, people at the fort "surmise" she is a witch -- in the end, no one knows. The second part of the story dealt with Dagadawidah and the spirit world of the Native Americans - after writing over 50 episodes I thought it would be a good storyline for the character.

Again, if this offended you, I'm sorry. It was not my intention to stomp on anyones beliefs; I was just trying to tell a historical story true to the times it took place in. It's getting very difficult to actually write anything these days that does not offend someone, somewhere -- especially when telling stories that take place 80, 100, or 250 years in the past. I can take bad reviews, I certainly have a few of them, and I actually do respect the view and opinion of this listener -- but I just thought it mis-represented the season of episodes, giving the impression it's darker and deeper into witchcraft than it actually is. Cheers - JR
