Bullseye Step into Classics: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

海底兩萬里一書中，儒勒凡爾納述說阿羅納斯教授的故事。阿羅納斯是研究海洋生態的專家，當發生許多船隻遭不明物體攻擊的離奇事件，阿羅納斯就被找來協助調查。但是他的發現竟是出乎意料之外，因為攻擊船隻的並不是任何一種海中生物，而是一艘由瘋船長尼默所駕駛的水底船。這位船長攻擊無辜的船隻，只是為了要復仇......

Gr 4-8-Performed in radio theatre style, this audio version is a fine retelling of the Jules Verne classic. The St. Charles Players, composed of four actors, play a variety of roles with hammy gusto, although the dialogue is a bit rushed in the opening sections. This adaptation by Jeff Rack does a good job of capturing the feel of Verne's sprawling epic tale. The story is told by Professor Aronnax, who agrees to investigate a series of attacks by a mysterious sea monster. He joins the crew of the ship Abraham Lincoln. The men encounter what they believe is the monster, but turns out to be a large, state-of-the-art submarine, the Nautilus. Aronnax and a hot tempered harpoonist, Ned Land, are imprisoned on this vessel, captained by the misanthropic recluse, Nemo. Nemo takes them around the world. Verne's descriptions of the underwater world, with its exotic creatures and sunken ships, shine thanks to clear narration and evocative sound effects. As the journey continues, becoming monotonous, the program's midsection sags a bit. It picks up steam again with sequences involving a monstrous octopus and a storm. While not an essential purchase, this is an impressive attempt to adapt a classic.
