Summary:
Bilbo Baggins, the hobbit, is a peaceful sort who lives in a cozy
hole in the Shire, a place where adventures are uncommon--and rather
unwanted. So when the wizard of Gandalf whisks him away on a treasure
hunting expedition with a troop of rowdy dwarves, he's not entirely
thrilled. Encountering ruthless trolls, beastly orcs, gigantic
spiders, and hungry wolves, Bilbo discovers within himself
astonishing strength and courage. And at the ultimate confrontation
with the fearsome dragon Smaug, the hobbit will brave the dangers of
dark and dragon-fire alone and unaided.J.R.R. Tolkien's timeless and
beloved tale is presented in a stunning dramatization that resounds
with all the excitement of a theater performance--and all the charm
of a vintage radio show. Originally conceived for BBC broadcast and
produced by the world's foremost creators of radio entertainment,
this lavish production melds a full cast with stirring music and
sound effects to bring this magnificent classic to life.
