The Renegotiation

Jay — Mon, 03 Feb 2020 23:45:48 +0000

PMRP Presents’ next studio project is “The Renegotiation” written by Kevin Kordis and directed by Laura Corliss.

The Renegotiation is the story of a blacksmith who makes a deal with… let’s just say someone who doesn’t have their best interest in mind. The fate of the blacksmith and their village is changed, but when it comes time to uphold their end of the bargain the blacksmith seeks a new deal.

The Renegotiation will be recorded in the studio and released as an audio file (with a free MP3 download, or you can support us by buying a high-quality version). We’ll update this page when the audio file is available.

PMRP Presents “The Arrest of Arsène Lupin”

Jay — Sun, 10 Jul 2016 23:51:18 +0000

“The Arrest of Arsène Lupin” is a new radio adaptation from PMRP’s Michael Lin of the first-ever-published Maurice Leblanc short story featuring Arsène Lupin, gentleman-burglar. The French steamship La Provence has received a telegram reporting that the notorious Arsène Lupin is onboard! Each passenger is eyeing their neighbor, wondering if they might be Lupin in disguise. Of them all, perhaps only Miss Nelly Underdown, keen-minded heiress, has a chance of ferreting him out — but what will happen as the clash of wits escalates? Thievery, misdirection, and a hint of romance are all in the mix!

This studio recording is a follow-up to Spring 2015’s “The Mysterious Traveler," which you can listen to here!

A Word from Our Sponsor

The Duke of Newbury Street is proudly sponsored by Bertha’s Boston Baked Borscht! A taste so good it had to flee its native land and seek refuge here in the Cradle of Liberty. A taste as old as the Urals, but fresh enough for the ’40s. It’s time, Boston! It’s time for BORSCHT!
