Production
The CD was released October 1, 2008. Its running time is 77 minutes and 33 seconds long. In this dramatization, the original Lovecraft story is slightly edited, both for time and the format; for example, the scene where Peaslee's family are frightened by his amnesiac personality are 'shown,' not merely referred to.
Troy Sterling Nies provided an original score, as with the other H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society productions. The cast features an ensemble of fifteen professional Los Angeles actors.
The CD includes a number of props from the story, including: a page from the British Medical Journal describing Peaslee's dreams (includes a sketch of the dream city), a shore-to-ship Marconi-Gram informing Peaslee of the expedition's discoveries, a page from the Arkham Advertiser describing Peaslee's collapse, and a page from Von Unaussprechlichen Kulten, in German.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“To expect to increase prices and then to maintain them at a higher level by means of a plan which must of necessity increase production while decreasing consumption is to fly in the face of an economic law as well established as any law of nature.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“In the production of the necessaries of life Nature is ready enough to assist man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.”
—Gus Hall (b. 1910)
