Bradbury Thirteen
A Sound of Thunder
by
Bradbury Thirteen brings Ray Bradbury’s imaginative fiction to radio in a dramatic series of adaptations. Each program turns one of Bradbury’s stories into an atmospheric audio experience, using actors, narration, music, and sound effects to evoke worlds where the familiar can become strange and unsettling.
The series draws on Bradbury’s blend of science fiction, fantasy, and human drama. Its stories often explore how people respond to change, technology, memory, and the unknown, balancing speculative ideas with intimate emotional stakes. The title here, “A Sound of Thunder,” is one of Bradbury’s best-known time-travel stories, centered on the consequences of a seemingly small disruption in the past.
With its theatrical performances and carefully shaped soundscape, Bradbury Thirteen invites listeners to follow the story through voice and atmosphere as much as through dialogue. The result is a thoughtful, suspenseful adaptation of Bradbury’s fiction, suited to listeners who enjoy imaginative storytelling with a human edge.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
