From AudioFile

The Sci-Fi Channel's Web site features "Seeing Ear Theatre," downloadable RealAudio plays here collected into a delightful anthology. This is not bug-eyed monster fare, nor the comic-book-inspired silliness that other audio dramatists are spewing forth these days. These selections are imaginative adventures in time and space by some of the brightest lights in the genre. The most outstanding feature of this first volume is the writing. The performers, who include Peter Coyote, Mark Hamill and "Star Trek"'s Marina Sirtis, range from serviceable to excellent. Producer/director Brian Smith has given the selections an overall personality, a kind of "house sound"--distinct, attractive and reminiscent of the classic radio series of the '50's "X Minus One." Y.R. An AUDIOFILE Earphones Award Winner. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

4.0 out of 5 stars It's finally here....and worth the wait!, Mar 25 1999
By Joel Calhoun "scifi aficianado" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Seeing Ear Theatre: A Sci-Fi Channel Presentation (Audio Cassette)
As most net surfers are aware the Sci-Fi Channel's web site has included a section devoted to science fiction radio drama...Seeing Ear Theatre. One aspect of which includes originally produced productions cerated especially for the site and which has featured performances by many well-known SF actors as Micheal O'Hare,Mark Hamill,Marina Sirtis,and others. With a few exceptions, a lot of the dramas are based on recent short stories by SF writers such as Terry Bisson, Allen Steele, John Kessel and Gergory Benford. With the release of this audiobook editon(which includes introductions by SF's resident angry young{sic}man Harlan Ellison)now one can listen to these stories anytime you want. The best stories(IMO)are the Three Odd Comedies and The Death of Captain Future (which despite the pulpish-sounding title is a darkly humorous tale set in the future history of Steele's previous works such as Orbital Decay and Clarke County,Space). If you like audio drama-- especially newly produced audio drama...you'll love this collection and you may also want to check out Vol. 2 which should be on sale soon(I know I can't wait).

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific science fiction, Mar 3 2009
By Joshua F. Meckler - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Seeing Ear Theatre: A Sci-Fi Channel Presentation (Audio Cassette)
I absolutely love these productions, and it's a terrible shame that Sci-Fi no longers makes these available through their website.

Seeing Ear Theatre is a much mourned loss.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very compelling stories, Oct 15 1999
By Mark S. Finn - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Seeing Ear Theatre: A Sci-Fi Channel Presentation (Audio Cassette)
This tape is well done. The sound effects create an atmosphere that draws in the listener. The actors are dramatic, but not overly so. The short stories themselves are well written, delivering edge-of-the-chair suspense (or knee-slapping comedy, as the case may be).
