Sound and Imagination
TWC Atmospherics is the name given to the audio production project started in 2016, but whose genesis lay in the success of the 2015 Spring Production ‘Radio Days’, which took the radio, or audio play concept to a live stage. The format was quickly recognised as a means of releasing our collective creativity from the bounds of limiting little things like budget and construction. Now, with the application of music and sound effects to create the right atmosphere, our audience’s imagination can take them anywhere. Our first completed audio drama is an adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle’s ‘A Scandal in Bohemia’, a Sherlock Holmes adventure, with the famous detective moving through the fog-shrouded streets of Victorian London…
A cryptic message, a masked man, a determined woman and a photograph that could change the course of nations. Sherlock Holmes finds himself up against a cunning adversary that might just be a match for the skills of the master detective…
Adapted from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s original tale by Paul M Ford and Dan Ireson, featuring Rachel Handler as Irene Adler, Richard Lloyd as the King of Bohemia, Chris Argles as Doctor John Watson and Paul M Ford as Sherlock Holmes.
Editing and Sound Effects by Peter Bird, with music composed and performed by Peter Bird.
