8TW Update 2/1 (BEAUTIES AND THE BEAST, EILEEN THORNE, STRANGERS IN PARADISE Season Two)

Good day, my friends and welcome to February!  We've been busy as the weather gets colder, snowier, and prolly more cumbersome.

Last Friday, in addition to the release of VHS Box Theater: Death Code: Ninja for its one month 'theatrical run,' Beauties and The Beast director Thomas Deja and Sultan of Sound Design Chris Honeywell got together with Nicole Thomte and Vanessa Van Zerr to welcome our star performer for this audio epic, and our newest member, Michael Bailey!  Comic book podcast fans should be very familiar with Michael's dulcet tones, as he is the maven of the Fortress of Baileytude network, providing podcast-y goodness for years as well as being one of the foremost Superman fans in the country.  "Michael is the closest friend I have who I haven't been in the same room with...yet," Thomas says.  "He is as enthusiastic about the medium as I am, so I was eager to get him involved...and when this cryptid romance started coming together, he felt like a natural to play our eloquent yet savage sasquatch."

Michael did the first chunk of narration as well as key scenes with Nicole, playing secondary female lead Cloud, and Vanessa.  More recording will commence next Friday, with Michael doing more narration and scenes with our female lead, the great Lauren A. Kennedy!  More on this as we get closer to Beauties' March 5th release date!

Sunday we all got together to record the second episode of Eileen Thorne.  Vanessa, Anna Crawford and Pamela Jean Agaloos were joined by Nicole in chronicling Eileen's pursuit of her evil twin sister into the Quantum Cloacca. These recordings are the ones where everyone seems to be having the most fun, with plenty of laughs and guffaws...and more material for future episodes!

Of course, fans of Terry Moore's Strangers in Paradise will be pleased to know that next week we begin recording the second season, which will debut in March!  This season will cover the second collection, I Dream of YouWe are still looking for new voice actors to fill out some major characters in that story, so if you're a fan of Moore, have your Sundays free, and are willing to do this for the love of the property and the medium (The only stipulation Terry put on us when he gave his blessing was that this remain strictly a fan work) please contact us at ocadecagonagontheaterworks@gmail.com with your voice reel!
