In this radio play, Tyrone Powell reprises his role of Peter Standish from the 1951 film
version, which was originally titled
The House in the Square. As
in the film (but not the 1926 play
Berkeley Square or the 1917
Henry James’ novel
The Sense of the Past), Standish is an
atomic scientist before being thrown back into an ancestor’s body.
Greetings from Hollywood. Ladies and gentlemen: I think you’ll be as intrigued with our
play tonight as I was when I discovered it was a most unusual love story, the story of a
modern scientist in love with a girl whom he meets in another century.
