The sun is going down and the Society is again paying a visit to Escape, this time to peruse their adaptation of John Collier’s short story, “Evening Primrose.” A strange journal is scribbled on a notepad found on a shop shelf. This journal tells the tale of a young poet who abandons society only to discover a strange nocturnal world within a department store. Would living in a department store be idyllic or nightmarish? Can love flourish in such a bizarre place? Was this story actually adapted as a musical for television, with music by Stephen Sondheim, now available on DVD? (Yes, it was.) Listen for yourself and find out! (Also, don’t forget to check out thewallbreakers.com for a fascinating history of radio drama!)
