I love the sound quality, the production is spot on, the story and insights and relevancy and the ebb and flow of intensity, the voice actors and plot and all of it is just so good.
Hours of top-notch entertainment

Every single production is world class. Show after show, they knock it out of the park. First class actors. Lush audio. Detailed soundscapes. Original stories — funny and sad and horrifying and everything in between. Gorgeous music. Bravo
“Rose of Pamir” was rough.

I’ve loved all the Limelight shows, and the Aldrich Kemp series has, up until now, been one of the best. However, all the “4th wall” stuff in “Rose” was overwhelmingly off-putting. Please don’t do that again.
Thank you
