S1001E1 - Introducing: Sarah Someone
Thu, 18 Mar 2021 23:52:40 -0000
Hi! This is Amy Carver, creator of The Host.
I’m excited to introduce you to a new Host-adjacent project. It’s an audio play in 3 parts called Sarah Someone. It’s about a high school senior who wants everyone at Immaculate Conception – teachers included – to be as “good” as she is.
It’s written by Katie Markovich, who wrote many things for The Host, including Rave On – the final call in season one episode two – and “All Are Welcome” – the entirety of Season Two Episode Four.
Also, Sarah Someone was directed by Tony Werner, who wrote several calls for The Host but is probably best known as the voice of Devon. (Everybody knows Devon.)
This episode is part one. If you like it, search “Sarah Someone” in your podcast browser for more.
Thanks! I hope you like it.
Sarah is a high school senior with big ambitions and an even bigger moral code. She wants everyone at Immaculate Conception—teachers included—to be as “good” as her. But what does it mean to be good, and at what cost?
Starring: Erin Austin as Sarah; Robert Artz as Father Ed; Huntington Daly as Brian; Tanya Laine as Colleen; Kimberly Alexander as Hilary.
Written by: Katie Markovich
Directed by: Tony Werner
Produced and Edited by: Amy Carver
