I've been saying for YEARS I was going to make this happen one way or another, and over the past year I pivoted away from a stage premiere Off-Broadway or in Pittsburgh to a concept album and podcast-with-animatics instead. In this AI-infested era of bland corporate slickness, my team and I ran in the opposite direction- everything is completely homemade, ethically sourced and independently produced. No generative AI, no sponsorship or corporate oversight, just my show plus a home recording studio, a passionate record engineer, an indie animator/illustrator and some of Pittsburgh's finest actors and singers.
The pilot premieres on YouTube this Halloween, featuring two original songs which will be released on Spotify later this week. Podcast episodes will be available starting in first quarter 2027 anywhere you choose to listen, with video versions available on Spotify and YouTube. Give the teaser trailer a view and please share it and follow the channel- this has been a labor of love for years, and seeding the algorithm is going to take almost as much work as creating the show did.
