Escape presents “Typhoon,” originally broadcast July 28, 1947. This archival recording is cataloged locally as episode 4707; the matching CBS broadcast was the fourth regular episode of the series.
Adapted from Joseph Conrad’s maritime tale, the drama follows Chief Mate Mr. Jukes aboard the China-coast steamer Nan-Shan as Captain MacWhirr guides a shipload of Chinese laborers from Singapore toward Foochow—and into worsening weather in the China Seas. Frank Lovejoy stars in this William N. Robson production.
Escape presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
