For a few minutes I was skeptical about ‘A Stitch in Time’ because of the initially stilted dialogue between “Big Billâ€ Rolandson (played by Leon Janney), head of a secret weapons company, and his secretary of 20 years, Emilia Fitzroy (Bryna Raeburn).  However as the actors settled in to their roles, the episode became quite interesting and dramatic, especially with the introduction of Big Bill’s niece, played by the mesmerizing Rosemary Rice; one of the sweetest voices in the Mystery Theater ensemble (listen to “Overnight to Freedomâ€ for an absolutely captive performance by nymph-like Rice, interestingly, here again playing the young relative of a defense contractor).  Sam Dann’s play does take a significant degree of license with the powers of ESP as well as a number of other ‘conveniences,’ but as happens so often E.G. Marshall’s silk-smooth sell  is there to guide us towards believability.  We are happy to buy in.  Listeners who temporarily fall astray from the story’s path will find themselves led back to it through a slight degree of repetition.  ‘A Stitch in Time’ is an enjoyable “yarnâ€ (pun intended) and definitely worth a listen.  I give the episode a solid three stars – JUROR #4.
