In the summer of 2012 the radio drama group I'm associated with, the Post Meridian Radio Players (www.pmrp.org), did an audio version of Hound of the Baskervilles. I did the script adaptation, assistant directed, and even played a small role as Clayton the cabbie.
I'll have the full recording in a few weeks, but for now here's a YouTube video of the opening scene set to photos from the rehearsals.

The show was a success, so we're at it again this summer with the Sign of Four. If you're Boston area and have a love for audio theater, come out and see the show. We go up the second and third weekend in July. (srt13.pmrp.org.)
Once I've gotten the full recording up on a Skydrive or other format I'll update this thread.

Thank you. I managed to miss this one when it was originally posted.
It'll be awhile before I have a full recording for Sign of Four (it's being recorded on 15 channels, which takes awhile to mix) but I did capture an iPhone video of one of the scenes. Apologies for the muffled audio, but here's Watson asking Sherman the bird-stuffer for Toby the dog. I love this scene.

Oh, that looked like a lot of fun!
Hi Jeremy,
I remember that we talked about your production although I can't remember in what context. I have a feeling that I sent you a message asking if you were doing a comedy style take on HOUN?
Would it be OK to put it on my Skydrive? I think the regulars of this group know of my Skydrive account and that it's easy to use. Unlike 4Shared you don't need a Skydrive account to download from Skydrive.
Good luck with The Sign of Four.
Hey, Jake,
Look back a few replies. Based on your experience with 4Shared, I signed up put it up on Skydrive. Feel free to share the link.

I do think you asked about the comedy version, and I (at the time) replied that ours would be deadly serious. Then we got it in front of an audience and discovered that the natural comedy of Holmes shone through despite my efforts. So this time, for Sign of Four, we've decided to just let Holmes be as quirky as he wants. It's been almost liberating.
First weekend went well. We actually got positive reviews from a local theatre ticket site!

I'm not sure but I think you might of misunderstood me Jeremy.
I wasn't asking for a copy via another link if that's what you thought. By the time I made my message I had already downloaded it as I have a 4Shared account already.
I was asking if it would be OK if I could upload it to my Skydrive. My Skydrive account is only for this group. If/when somebody outside the group were to ask me for a Holmes file (and that file is on my Skydrive) then I say to them OK, join the TP Holmes group and then you can get to my Skydrive account. Anybody into Holmes audio should be happy to make a TP Holmes group account.
I have just finished listening to HOUN. Which is a statement in itself as some audio interpretations I stop listening to through boredom. If I lived in Boston I'd come along to watch for sure.
Thanks Jeremy.
Sure, Jake. Go ahead with the Skydrive. And I'm glad you enjoyed the Hound!
Thanks for sharing your work with us, Jeremy. I enjoyed the 8 minute YouTube clip. I'm trying to figure out how to download the 4shared clip. Good luck with your Sign of Four production. Let us know how it goes.

Awhile back 4 shared made it mandatory that you had an account before you could download from them. It is really no big thing to sign up for a free account if that is how you are going to get the file you want.--------- R
