If you like mysteries, horror stories, historical spoofs, comedies, and anything else I've forgotten to mention One Act Audio Theatre have got you covered. Give this excellent group of players a chance and you'll find yourself wanting more. I would highly recommend their treatment of 3 Sherlock Holmes stories as well. Have fun listening!!!
