Twelve-year-old Nils Olsen lives in the coastal town of Svendborg in Denmark with his sensible but unremarkable parents. His life is orderly and predictable, and excitement is in short supply—until his eccentric and largely withdrawn grandfather, who lives in the family’s garden shed, gives Nils an unexpected birthday present.

The gift is a ship. Well, not a ship exactly, but the materials to build one: weathered planks, timber, and an idea that borders on the impossible.

Reluctantly, Nils’s parents agree to let him and his grandfather work on the project in the garden, certain it will be short-lived. They assume the scale of the task will overwhelm him and that the ship will never be finished.

They are wrong.

As the vessel takes shape, Nils discovers a determination he didn’t know he possessed, and what begins as an unlikely construction project becomes the first step toward a life-changing adventure.

The full score of the Captain Skimp series grew out of more than fifteen years of live, improvised storytelling with children aged 4–12. Through his part time work—first in kindergarten and later as a schoolteacher—Jonas Præst Nielsen recorded over 300 sessions, letting characters, worlds, and stories emerge naturally through play and interaction with the children. This improvisational process became the creative backbone of the series. As Nielsen says, “I didn’t write the story—the characters did.”

Jonas Præst Nielsen is a Danish composer and musician who later expanded into writing and storytelling. His musical background shapes the series’ distinctive music, rhythms and cinematic sound universe. For his Cinematic Audiobooks, he has received several grants from the Danish Arts Foundation, AUTOR, and KODA, supporting productions that combine artistic authenticity with a high, technical quality of sound design.

The award-winning Spectral Silhouette Radio Show is a musical audio drama/podcast produced in the Chicagoland area by Henry Scherrer and Matt Winkelman. It combines the pulpy noir spirit of programs from the golden age of radio with modern sensibilities and style. Part comedy, part mystery, all fun, Silhouette is a labor of love from a great group of actors, musicians, and crew members. The show is performed live every two months and both nights sell out within hours, sometimes minutes. We have a full stage production with an audio engineer, sound effects engineer, fifteen actors, and a jazz band with horns. It's a one of a kind experience, mixing the feel of a jazz club with a stage show full of mystery, laughs, ghosts and more. Our show has grown a lot over the years. What started as a one off production became twenty six episodes, four minisodes and forty two original songs. We even have our own beer, Puzzle Club (a delicious ruby rye ale), from the fine people at Skeleton Key Brewery. We are now on our fourth season, and look forward to producing more installments in the years to come.

Monty and company investigate the disappearance of a famous actress. The stakes get even higher when another actress goes missing prompting the detectives to step into the brutal world of big dreams and silver screens. Fearing they've been kidnapped by a killer; the detectives find themselves in a race against time to discover the starlets whereabouts before their final curtain calls. Pirates, laughs, casting agents, thespians, and more in this exciting installment of The Spectral Silhouette!

The Romcom Formula is a scripted romantic comedy audio series about love, control, and what happens when someone who knows romance a little too well decides to play matchmaker in real life.

 

Shannon, a romance audiobook narrator, believes every great love story follows a formula. Armed with trope expertise and good intentions, she secretly sets out to orchestrate a romcom for her overworked sister, Claire, by engineering meet-cutes, forced proximity, and just enough chaos to spark chemistry with Tony, the charming handyman next door.

 

As Claire and Tony’s connection deepens, the cracks in Shannon’s plan begin to show. Careers shift, long-distance love tests their bond, and real life refuses to follow a tidy three-act structure. Set against family dynamics, creative ambition, and a wink at romance culture itself, The Romcom Formula asks whether love is something you can manufacture—or only stumble into when you stop trying so hard.

Essa didn’t ask for rumors to follow her like gum stuck to the bottom of her shoe. However, being known as ‘Oblivion Girl: Destroy of Cities’ was a rumor she could sink her teeth into. With the help of her sidekick, Atticus, the two were doing just fine hunting bounties, fighting pirates, and arguing with Gypsies. And she didn’t even mind when Alita joined the group—even though they constantly fought. This was all, of course, before she knew her brother Eden was still alive.

 

But it wasn’t just Eden she needed to worry about. Sure, he may be the commander in the elite squad of military kill machines, but he was still the brother she knew and loved. Wasn’t he?

 

Now, along with her group of trigger-happy outcasts, they must fight for their lives if they want to win the war against Eden. Will Essa keep her reputation as the #1 bounty hunter, or will she lose everything when facing an opponent more powerful than herself?

Exhaust is a dark, intimate play set during the early years of the Holocaust. Over the course of a single drive, two Nazi drivers talk, argue, joke, and circle around the reality of what they are doing. What begins as routine conversation slowly reveals a much more dangerous landscape beneath it: fear, guilt, survival, cruelty, and the desperate need to keep functioning inside a system built on murder.

As the journey continues, their sharply different ways of coping begin to collide. One buries himself in detachment and procedure; the other is haunted by memory and unable to fully look away. Their exchanges shift from mundane to menacing, from bitterly funny to deeply unsettling, exposing not only the machinery of violence around them but the fragile, compromised humanity still flickering inside it.

Tense, claustrophobic, and morally unflinching, Exhaust confronts the banality of evil head-on. It is a play about what people do to survive, what they choose not to see, and what it costs to keep moving forward when stopping feels impossible.
