Dr. Peter Blood is arrested and sentenced to hang for treating a wounded rebel. Instead of death, he is sent to Barbados as a slave. When the Spanish attack the port city of Bridgetown, he and his fellow slaves capture the Spanish ship and set out to sea, where he becomes the notorious pirate Captain Blood.

The Colonial Radio Theatre on the Air is proud to present Rafael Sabatini's adventure classic, Captain Blood, fully dramatized for the first time. This production puts you in the middle of the action with a large cast of actors, thousands of sound effects, and original music, all in full digital stereo.

With its battles on sea and land, daring escapes, sword duels to the death, touch of romance, and magnificent score by Jeffrey Gage, this dramatization of the greatest pirate story of them all is a swashbuckling adventure on a grand scale.
