Hello! This is Lee Shackleford ... I am the creator and head writer and producer and one of the actors on the science-fiction drama serial RELATIVITY, starring Alana Jordan.
RELATIVITY is a PG-rated audio drama that's basically about two people: a woman ... who is the Mission Control flight director ... and a man out in deep space who has found himself suddenly being the only person aboard a giant spaceship. And it's about their struggle to remain connected, the two of them, to help each other out through life and death situations that arise -- at mission control, believe it or not - - and on this ship hurtling through the void.
Their only link across the vast emptiness of the cosmos ... is the sound of each other's voices.
What I'd like for you to listen to now is a scene from episode 37, which aired in May 2019... ... and it's a little bit of a reversal of the situation -- usually Sophia, the mission control lady, is the one who's helping Chris with his problems on the spaceship out into deep space. This time something terrible happens in her life and Chris is there to help her across trillions of miles of space.
The only thing you need to know to understand what's going on in this scene is that Sophia has a younger sister who has a deadly disease -- and the only hope for her has been to put her in suspended animation. And their mother is despondent about the fact that the girl, Sybil, l had to be put into this freezer for who knows how long.
There's also a hurricane hitting Puerto Rico where mission control is!
So here is a little bit of episode 37 of RELATIVITY ... starring Alana Jordan and Lee Shackleford.
