Escape presents “The Derelict,” originally broadcast on CBS on April 26, 1953. Commonly cataloged as episode 180, this sustaining broadcast was written for radio by Larry Roman from a story by Victor Schwartz and directed by Antony Ellis.

A drifting ship in the Indian Ocean becomes an uneasy refuge for four survivors—one woman and three men—along with a cargo of gold. As isolation and uncertainty close in, survival, mistrust, and greed test the fragile alliance aboard the abandoned vessel. The cast includes Charlotte Lawrence, Ben Wright, and Charlie Lung.

Escape presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned and mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
