BlueLife⁠ is a new post-apocalyptic sci-fi audio story which has its world premiere on September 1st. I'd love you to listen, and if you like what you hear please subscribe to the email list on the website so you will be one of the first to hear the episodes when they are launched. The ⁠BlueLife⁠ script was an Austin Film Festival semi-finalist. It received a staged reading at the Festival where it was roundly praised. The creators Mark Vashro and Kenneth Heaton both have lengthy experience in stage and film. Mark produced the short film Thunder Road, which won the Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury Prize, and his bicycling documentary Bike Against the Wind earned him top honors as Best Director at the Boise Film Festival. Mark is also a well-known Bay Area actor, having appeared in numerous stage productions. Ken’s play The Ontological Detective was produced off-Broadway, and his Mustard Seed won the Southern Playwrights Competition. As an actor, Heaton has appeared in the Academy Award-nominated short, The Letter Room, and on Hulu’s Chance. Both Vashro and Heaton play roles in BlueLife.The seasoned cast includes, among many others, Mapuana Makia (Apple TV’s Invasion, the CW’s Family Law, Doogie Kamealoha, M.D., Two Sentence Horror Stories) as Persephone, Joel Marsh Garland (Poker Face, Orange is the New Black, Birdman or [The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance], The Last OG, Hello Tomorrow) as The Clown, Donna Jay Fulks (X-Men ’97, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, I Love That for You) as Fiona Thomlinson, and JillMarie Lawrence (Dexter: Original Sin, Ocean’s Eight, City by the Sea, Law & Order) as Faye Emma MacArthur. Vashro and Heaton have teamed up with Audio Producer/Sound Designer Rachel Boyd (Audio Producer on Fear Daily, Producer, Editor and Voice Artist for Codename: Blank!, Lead Producer for Hearing the Haunted). BlueLife is a character-driven series set in the post-apocalyptic city-state of Los Angeles, which is believed to be the last bastion of humanity on the planet. In the midst of environmental collapse, two warring factions fight for control of a life-saving drug, ⁠BlueLife⁠, which will determine the outcome of the human race. Set in the year 2088, shortly after the ‘Second Blood War,’ our story deals with the ideas of class and power. This series combines the styles of Blade Runner, LA Confidential, The Matrix, and the series Firefly. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
