For sometime now I've  been flirting with the idea of directing Ray Bradbury's MARTIAN CHRONICLES. There are things about it I like, but more that I don't. A setting on another planet really appeals to me. Does anyone else of know of other science fiction titles?

A few titles for your consideration:

DARKSIDE by Ken Jones (S French)

A fictional and ill-fated Apollo mission where the two landers are standed and the third crewmember in orbit must make the decision to return without them. Or does he?

STARSTRUCK by Elaine Lee, Susan Norfleet Lee and Dale Place (Broadway Play Publishers)

Inspiration for a comic series, although billed as a space opera, no singing necessary

STARMITES by Barry Keating and Stuart Ross  (S French)

A musical "Alice in Spaceland" and Tony Award winner

LUNACY by Patricia Weaver Francisco (Dramatic Publishing)

A woman who could have been the first female astronaut is transported by the stars from her home in the New Mexico desert

i would suggest 'R.U.R.' by Carl Kapek, but that play doesn't happen on another planet.

it is fascinating since that was the first time 'robot' was used as we now know it. and it's a fun little play that really deserves a more modern take on it.
