Synopsis:
The Lovely Dark is a fiction podcast about how darkness in our lives may reveal a path to love and light.
Each of these short audio plays is written by an award-winning writer and performed by a cast of remarkable actors, including Oscar winners and members of New York City’s Labyrinth Theater Company. Each episode is produced with a full cast, and a beautiful, immersive soundscape.
In the dark, we can see lights that were hidden before. We might finally see a way forward or come to a threshold that we must cross. Maybe we catch an ugly view of ourselves and resolve to make a change, or we discover a new capacity for love or forgiveness that in the full light of day we could never have imagined.

A caper in space starring Oscar, Emmy and Tony Award winner Ellen Burstyn. Two ambassadors from Earth are just about to drop in on a newly discovered civilization. But before they can enter the atmosphere, the species they were supposed to have lunch with captures their pod and tosses them into an orbiting prison. It's often this way with aliens; so close and yet so far.
