CLASSIC SCI-FI RADIO | Theatre of the Mind SF'68 transformed outstanding science fiction plays and short stories into a hit science fiction radio show. This South African series was produced by Michael McCabe, who was previously acclaimed for the popular show Beyond Midnight. Fittingly, a futuristic new cleaning product, BioTex, sponsored the show. I admit to a certain fascination with the South African advertisements which are somehow frozen in time like exotic amber inclusions for your amusement. Like all Science Fiction dramas of it's time, this show was produced when there was an astronomical interest in the speculative visions of what may come in the future. It goes without saying of course that, the theatre of the mind makes all things possible. We hope you enjoy this rare recording and stay tuned for new episodes from our complete SF'68 Collection. At Radio Gold we love Classic Radio and have amassed a huge archive of programs from every genre. We look forward to producing and presenting a great variety of new shows every week in our efforts to keep this high quality art form alive and entertaining people just like YOU.
