Audio Play Review: A Story of Unlikely Redemption, ‘The Canterville Ghost’
The most important effect of any audio play is to inspire its audience to create visual images of the story being heard. This makes this particular medium an excellent fit for the Oscar Wilde 1887 short story, “The Canterville Ghost.”
American businessman Hiram Otis (Amir Abdullah) has just purchased Canterville Chase, an English country manor house, as a new home for his family. Lord Canterville (Gareth Thomas) is selling his ancestral lodgings because his wife can no longer tolerate the haunting by the ghost of Sir Simon de Canterville (John Hunter).
