Ten years ago, I wrote, directed, and produced a 20-minute sci-fi horror audio drama about love and obsession titled “Simple Harmonic Motion.” We produced it as a pilot for our podcast – Synesthesia Theatre – but never released it publicly, instead using it as a mailing list sign-up incentive.
It’s been a decade since we could afford to produce another season of the podcast and that mailing list is long cold, so we’re making “Simple Harmonic Motion” freely available for your listening enjoyment.
Cast:
Kat O’Connor – “Captain Margaret Kincade”
Kat O’Connor is a Midwest native, but born with an Irish passion that was a bit too big for a small town. She has been featured in a number of independent films, including the award-winning short film Hatboxes, and Out of Sight. She is a natural storyteller, with words or, just as often, without. Her personal mission is to tell the story, and thus change the world, one heart at a time.
Song Marshall – “Lieutenant Claire Jacqueme”
Born in West Covina, California, Song grew up all over the country, living in California, Georgia, Florida, and Louisiana. She obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Theatre from Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida. Find her on Instagram and tiktok @TheWhimsyBlerd.
Ruth Kaufman – “A.M.I.”
Ruth Kaufman is a Chicago author, voiceover and on-camera talent. She’s narrated dozens of projects, voiced numerous characters, and has had roles in various independent features, web series and national TV commercials. And she’s performed on stages from iO to the Lyric Opera of Chicago. Her unparalleled improvisational speed talking has been featured on America’s Funniest People and in other productions.
