    Perfect Retreat 5A - Live Performance Scenes and Songs - extra

    Massive apologies for the delay in getting out the final episode of Perfect Retreat. Life events intervened, but Episode 6 is now in post-production.   This is a recording from the Audio Drama Hub Podfest, held in High Wycombe in November 2022. In this, there was a slot for new podcasts – and we were lucking enough to gather together many of our international cast to perform some live scenes and singing performances from Perfect Retreat (including the intro/outro song, by Karin Heimdahl, who travelled all the way from Sweden for the occasion! and Sarah Golding singing Zinnia's song "Smile", which she wrote.)   Not all the podcast cast could be present for these scenes from the show, and we were extremely grateful to Karim Kronfli and Michael Hudson for standing in.   Live show transcript here This live extract from Perfect Retreat was written by Fiona Thraille It featured, in order of appearance Karin Heimdahl as the theme singer and Maja Wendy Lapp as The Voiceover, Claire, and Voice of the Credits Fiona Thraille as The Operator and Sam Karim Kronfli as John Robert Cudmore as Andy Sarah Golding as Zinnia Michael Hudson as Alex Additional music by Sarah Golding and Mugzy Thanks to the staff at the Wycombe Swan, High Wycombe and to everyone who managed to come along to, or supported the festival, and to our sponsors. The Podfest is now an annual event, and if you would like to find out more, it's here. Support the show
