Jabberwocky Audio Theater

We kick off our anthology series with a version of the German folk take “The Street Musicians” by Andrew Lang, “The Owl and the Pussycat” by English artist Edward Lear, and two fables from Greek storyteller Aesop. Rated AD-G for general audiences Unless you think robbers don’t deserve some animal-related karma or are allergic to runcible spoons, you should be fine. Click here for full show notes.

The JAT crew got a chance to return to Escape Velocity over the 2019 Memorial Day weekend and do a special live production in honor of the 40th anniversary of both Alien and the TV show Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (as you’ll hear, we reference some of the earlier adventures of Rogers as well). Basically, it’s a sendup of every space opera story you know where a crew investigates a derelict spacecraft and mayhem ensues. In addition to creating some brand new sound gear for live sound effects, we got to work with our first “special guest voice” as space opera veteran Gigi Edgley was a guest of the convention and graciously agreed to step up to the mic. Rated AD-PG, so parental guidance is suggested Contains sci-fi related action and peril (including character death), destroying a robot, destroying a ship (or two or three), repeated use of “dammit,” one use of “frelling,” which if you’ve seen Farscape you know is quite naughty, and computer-based betrayal.
