CBS Radio Mystery Theater
A Point in Time
CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents original radio dramas in the tradition of classic mystery and suspense broadcasting. Hosted by E. G. Marshall, the series frames its stories with his calm, measured introductions and closing remarks, giving listeners a steady guide through tales of crime, danger, and the uncanny.
Each installment is a self-contained audio play, built around dialogue, sound effects, and music rather than a visual scene. The stories range across mysteries, psychological suspense, supernatural encounters, and other dramatic situations, with performers bringing the characters to life through a full radio cast. The title “A Point in Time” identifies this installment.
The program’s appeal lies in its theatrical sound and deliberate pacing: a narrator’s voice sets the scene, while voices and carefully shaped audio cues create atmosphere and tension. It offers an inviting way to experience a complete dramatic story through listening alone, with the intimate feel of a performance unfolding in the imagination.
