World Premiere Listening Party of Scripted Podcast:
GIVE ME A WILDFIRE
ABOUT
La MaMa presents the world premiere listening party of the scripted podcast Give Me A Wildfire produced by Non Sans Content. Emceed by 24 Hour plays Artistic Director Mark Armstrong, the evening will include a Q & A with writer Daniel Duren, director C.C. Kellogg, actor-producer Sigrid Sutter, sound designers Michelle Deniesse Lugo, Alexandra Alvarez Pilonieta, and members of the cast (TBD). This is a strictly limited engagement.
Featuring on-location, immersive sound captures of the Boundary Waters wilderness, the story follows David as he tracks his wife Jesse, an eco-journalist who’s gone missing while on assignment in Northern Minnesota. An intimate thriller, the story asks, “How far would you go to protect something you love?” The cast includes Chris Ghaffari, Christopher Kelly, Steven Epp, Sigrid Sutter, Welker White, Tina Benko, Ken Barnett, Timothy Hull, Carol Jacobanis, and Reed Birney.
The evening is also a fundraiser for non-profit environmental advocacy group Friends of the Boundary Waters, who has partnered with Non Sans Content for this production. Donations will be accepted at the premiere night and online any time.
“All proceeds for the life of the podcast will be passed along to Friends of the Boundary Waters. Daniel and I produced this piece as a gift to the land and its continued preservation; we encourage audiences to donate directly to our non-profit partner,” commented Sutter.
Give Me a Wildfire will drop online on all major podcast platforms on September 30th.
