SeanJ: The Pedestrian begat The Fireman which begat Fahrenheit 451, you may wish to read them in that order…then there is Match to Flame.

And for elongation, look for the Ray Bradbury Theater adaptation of the story (available on DVD), which Ray scripted himself. It's a longer version, with an additional character.

The Pedrestian was recently performed by Mr. B's Pandemonium Theatre Company. The story and the play hold up well.

Does anyone know if any of Ray's Pandemonium Theater Company performances have been filmed? I live outside of Washington, DC so I'm never going to be able to see one of these shows live.
Best Wishes,

I've asked about doing it ourselves, but apparently there are so many issues with rights, and legalities, and actors, and unions and such, that it would be nearly impossible to do so commercially.
As archiving goes, usually the final performance is filmed, but that's not made public.
Probably goes in Ray's wonderful cellar (which I would give a dollar and a quarter to poke around in)!

Ditto, Blind Henry. Living in a different hemisphere always brings a sigh when I read of people meeting Ray, hearing him talk, visiting his home town, attending signings, plays ... etc.... sigh....
