Classic

One of my absolute favorite Wallace Shawn pieces, erotic (ish) and wicked and deeply (im)moral. Performed to perfection and produced beautifully. Podcasts were meant for Wallace Shawn.

Can’t stop thinking about it

The trippiest and most haunting play. Fantastic work!

Le' Discarded ,

If you’ve lived a long, full life ...

then there are many experiences that you’ve had and don’t share with others. But, from time to time, you enjoy reflecting on. That’s what “Grasses of a Thousand Colors” is like.
