I discovered something interesting while listening to Ian Martin’s dramatic and well-written â€Terror in the Air.â€  Radio dramas are known as Theatre of the Mind because as we listen we fill in the details of the story in our “mind’s eye.â€  Our brains work to determine things like what the characters look like, the story’s ‘scenery,’ where the players are positioned in relationship to the scenery and each other, and other important elements.  For every listener each one of these things is unique.  Terror in the Air takes place entirely within in the cramped confines of a commercial airliner – a place we all have been – which places significant constraints on the usually limitless possibilities for these elements.  The result is a highly suspenseful and claustrophobic trip on jetliner in crisis.  Perennial Robert Dryden, who seems play the role of a doctor quite often (for example Dr. Wyndham in the fantastic “Fall of the House of Usherâ€) plays Dr. Sam McCall.  Reminiscent of Hitchcock’s classic ‘Wrong Man’ character, “Docâ€ finds himself reluctantly called on to save a planeload of souls while traveling to recover the body of his son, killed in an Air Force accident.  The mixture of dialogues between various people on the plane, a very due pregnant woman, the broken radio, a sudden storm, and the chilling reveal at the end make for a spectacular episode, and embodies the highest quality of Radio Mystery Theatre.  I give “Terror in the Airâ€ 5 stars out of 5 - Juror #4.
