This week we bring you tales of Heroes and Villains in the Big City. We begin with "The Adventures of the Crimson Hawk: The Crimson and the Red" episode one, by William Alan Ritch. This is a three part serial, so be sure to tell us how you like it at podcast@artc.org. This was performed live at the coffeehouse in Little Five Points in Atlanta. This is one of our older recordings, and we're not exactly sure what year, but it was pre-1996.
Next up is Jonathan Strickland's "Mildly Exciting Tales of Astonishment: Subterranean Subterfuge" recorded live at Sci Fi Summer in 2005.

30 - Dweller in the Depths - Part 2
St. Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland (but not on a plane...unless you mean a 2-dimensional surface...nevermind). But did he miss one? Just what is the Loch Ness Monster? Assuming it even exists.
Last week we brought you part one of The Dweller in the Depths, by Thomas E. Fuller, recorded live at Eddie's Attic in Decatur, GA. This week we bring you part two of the story, but this performance was recorded at Stone Mountain Park in 2005.
Did you like hearing the story broken up over two performances? Would you like to hear more of the evolution of ARTC? Or not? Write to us at podcast@artc.org and let us know!

29 - Dweller in the Depths - Part 1
Ah, St. Patrick's Day. Leprechauns, shamrocks, pots o' gold, and green things everywhere. Well, everywhere except here. We've just got lots of blarney because this week our podcast features a story set in that fabled land of...Scotland.
This week: Part one of The Dweller in the Depths, by Thomas E. Fuller. , This episode was recorded live at Eddie's Attic in Decatur, GA back in 1997. Next week we'll bring you part two of the story, but the performers will be a lot different because it will have been recorded at Stone Mountain Park in 2005. We hope you'll hear how far we've come in those 8 years.

26 - A Bridge into the Past
In the words of William Brown, "Due to technical problems beyond our control, we now join our regularly scheduled program."
This week's show is entitled "A Bridge into the Past." Why? Because I needed a name and that's what I came up with on short notice.
Bridge: Actually, one of the things you don't usually get to hear in our podcasts, Dear Listener, is the "bridging material." The short, often one-use scripts that ARTC producers insert into the live shows as buffers in between our more known stories. There is a small but healthy sampling included.
Past: This week's features are a little older than our normal fare. And like the bridging material, they are also things we don't usually podcast. ARTC has had many varied venues in its past. And veteran ARTC performers may (or may not) wax nostalgic about places such as "Eddie's Attic," or tip a mug of Collins Best Coffee in a remembrance of ARTC's Coffee House Days. Or of Guerilla Radio Theater at Manuel's Tavern.
Included:
The Adventures of Hercule Perot. (Last name not a typo, any similarities to any Texas businessman are coincidental.)
Unresolved Mysteries, Solved While You Wait: Phrenotherapy by Ron N. Butler.
A Girl and Her Gryphon by Henry Lee Forrest.

22 - The Crimson Hawk: The Widow's Web
In this week's podcast:
Incidentally, if you are a fan of this genre of crime-fighter shows like the Crimson Hawk, (or The Shadow, or the Green Hornet,) I recommend "The Red Panda Adventures." Sadly, this is not an ARTC show in any way, shape, or form. (But then neither is The Shadow or the Green Hornet.)
The Red Panda can be found at http://www.decoderringtheatre.com/
You could tell them ARTC sent you, but I'm sure they'd say, "Uh... who?"
- Bumper's Crossroads: Whole Lotto Shakin' Going' On by Daniel Taylor.
- Nikki's Place: In a Bit of a Jam by Ron N. Butler.
- The Crimson Hawk: The Widow's Web by Ron N. Butler (based on characters originated by Thomas E. Fuller.)

21 - Saturday Morning Kid Shows
No voice intro for this show. Despite miscommunication and general behind the scenes random mayhem, this week's podcast is NOT canceled.
There *was* a voice intro recorded. It was meant to sound off the cuff and laid back and funny, but it ended up sounding half-planned and disorganized. (It was.) Anyway, the show lineup has changed several times in the last few hours.
In no particular order:
We have 2 episodes of "Rory Rammer, Space Marshall:" written by Ron N. Butler. One is "The Island of Dr. Marceau" and the other is only ever talked about in hushed, furtive whispers: "The Lost Episode."
And, an episode of "Mildly Exciting Tales of Astonishment," by Jonathan Strickland: Ps and Q's.
Also included are a pair of Public Service Announcements from the "Brotherhood of Damn Sassy Mutants," by Sketch MacQuinor.
No time for credits. If you want to know, you'll just have to ask nicely.

19 - The Colour Out of Space
Hope everyone is having a happy new year. To start out 2007 we're going to get back to our roots by presenting The Colour Out of Space by H. P. Lovecraft, adapted by Ron N. Butler, and performed live at Dragon*Con 2006. This was our only show at Dragon*Con this year, so if you missed it then this is your chance! We've performed at every Dragon*Con since the first, and Lovecraft has always been one of our mainstays.
If you enjoy the work of H. P. Lovecraft, or if you just like ARTC, then pick up one of our other adaptations!
Also, remember that you can email podcast@artc.org with your comments, or you can include them here. We'd love to hear from you with questions, comments, concerns, or even complaints.

15 - An Atlanta Christmas - Episode 02
The Elves Strike Back.
<>
In addition to the plays of Thomas Fuller's Atlanta Christmas, the writers of ARTC have produced a number of shorts which provide a comic counterpoint. Think of this as the lighter side of Christmas.
All of these pieces are surreal (as if the entire concept of Santa Claus and the Northpole Workshop isn't). Some (all?) may be in questionable taste. One of these pieces will be performed in this years Christmas show program. There can be only one.
<>
You have been warned. <>
<< Cue ARTC theme - Something NPR-ish with strings and horns - and under for >>
This podcast includes the following pieces from our live performances at Stone Mountain and Parkview High School.
"Roger, the Jolly Little Christmas Elf" by Gerald W Page (2000)
"The Legend of the Poinsettia" by Brad Strickland (2004)
"Unresolved Mysteries Solved While U Wait - the Grinch" by Ron N. Butler (2000)

14 - An Atlanta Christmas - Episode 01
Welcome, welcome one and all to our family Christmas! To every family Christmas that ever was or ever will be! Behold the traditional Christmas tree weighted down with ornaments and decorations! Every five year old's Christmas morning writ large and come true!
For one day a year, the Theater of the Mind gives way to a warm hearth and a bowl of gingerbread -- and when from the roof there arises a clatter, it's neither a faceless monster nor a Martian.
It's Christmas.
Christmas is memories. For the next 5 podcasts, ARTC will be bringing you some of our favorite memories from our holiday programming, drawing heavily from Thomas E. Fuller's An Atlanta Christmas, but with a few other surprises along the way.
This week we bring you The Ultimate Christmas Pageant and O Tannenbaum by Thomas E. Fuller, and Some Assembly Required, by Daniel Taylor.
These were recorded live in 2003 at Stone Mountain Park's Fruitcake Festival. Featured in the cast were the voices of Joyce Leigh, Daniel Taylor, Ron N. Butler, Neil Butler, Colin Butler, Daniel Kiernan, Clair Kiernan, Tamara Morton, Justin Ameri, Katie Brass, Megan Jackson, Juliana Finch, Sarah Taylor, Josh Adams, Jack Mayfield, and Caran Wilbanks.
Foley sound effects were created by Lili, Deanna Ameri, and Sheila Ameri. Music performed by Brad Weage. Sound engineering by David Carter, Ray Spitz, and Elayna Little. The show was produced and directed by William Alan Ritch.

13 - Rory Rammer: Lance of Justice / Time for Station ID
Recorded at Camp Will-A-Way inside Ft Yargo State Park. This was one of my favorite shows, because the audience was especially appreciative, and I think that adds to a performance as much as anything else. Also, we performed outside and it didn't rain, which is always a plus.
We also got a nice introduction from Annie Maxwell, which I have included.

12 - Frontier Days 01
In May of 2004 we were invited to perform at Stone Mountain Park's Frontier Days Festival. We eagerly accepted the opportunity...and then learned that the theme was Georgia between the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. With our specialties being in the area of science fiction, fantasy, and horror...well, our selection of available material was a bit thin.
But our writers rose to the challenge and wrote us 11 new scripts, including rehearsals and rewrites, in about three months. It was an exciting time and we got some great new material out of it. Today we bring you a bit of historical bridging, "A Sage Conversation" by Augustus Baldwin Longstreet, "A Feast at Sycamore Grove" by Bill Arp, and we finish with "The Triumph of Natural Justice" by Ron N. Butler.
Oh, and we performed it outdoors on the Plantation Grounds, which just goes to prove that we can do a show just about anywhere.
