    Long-Lost Play for Voices about Self Talk

    Long-Lost Play for Voices about Self Talk

    Max and Kelley discuss a long-lost performance piece Max wrote over twenty-five years ago when we first moved to Atlanta.  The piece examines our inner voice and how important it is to give grace to ourselves even if things are not going as well as we hoped.  He found it recently and wanted to perform it for our podcast audience for the first time.

    We also talked about our history of doing radio theater, including for a public radio station, WLRN  in Miami, where we performed on the Pandamonium Midnight Uprising in the early 1990s.  Kelley also talks about other podcasts that are outgrowths of radio theater, including Sarah Wayne Callies' production of Aftershocka fast-paced thriller about a massive earthquake that destroys the West Coast, causing a mysterious island to rise up from the Pacific and how creating it as a traditional show would be expensive. Still, as a podcast, you let the listeners use their imagination. We also talk about our ventures into doing a production of Sophia's Carol as a podcast dramedy holiday production.

    The Dancing Princess

    The Dancing Princess

    THE DANCING PRINCESS
    Red Series (ages 6 & up)
    Copyright 2020 by  P. Haines-Ainsworth and Terence Alaric Levitt
    published by Winking Kat Books

    "The Dancing Princess"  is an original story based on a folktale from Eastern Europe.  It is about a princess named Yulia who loves to dance so much that she is always wearing out her shoes.   She is afraid her father will be upset, so she doesn't tell him why her shoes are wearing out.   Her father, King Valentine, decides to sponsor a challenge.  Any young man who can find out Princess Yulia's secret within three days will win her hand in marriage and half of the kingdom.  The contest is not going well.  No one can stay awake long enough to discover the princess' secret until a stranger named Anatoly Padin arrives into the kingdom.  He has a secret, too.  It is a secret cape given to him by an old conjurer in the woods.  It can make him invisible to the princess so he can follow her unseen - that is if he can stay awake long enough to see where she goes.

    If this sounds familiar, this story was probably the basis for similar stories about twelve dancing princesses.  Versions of that story were recorded by the Grimm Brothers and Hans Christian Andersen.    We hope you enjoy this musical adaptation from Winking Kat.

    Book and Lyrics by P. Haines-Ainsworth.  Music by Terence Alaric Levitt.  Narrated by P. Haines-Ainsworth with vocals by Adrian Cerrato, Arwen Dewey, Max Lopuszynski, David Bailey, and Patricia Haines-Ainsworth.  Book and Lyrics by P. Haines-Ainsworth.  Recorded at Top of the Hill Studios in Duvall, WA.

    The Nightingale

    The Nightingale

    Blue Series (ages 5 and up)
    Copyright © 2020 by P. Haines-Ainsworth and Terence Alaric Levitt
        published by Winking Kat Books

    "The Nightingale"
    is adapted from Hans Christian Andersen's story by the same name about an Emperor and a plain Nightingale who become friends.  Published in 1843, "The Nightingale"  quickly became one of his most well-known stories.  It is about an Emperor who is lonely and often sad.  His trusted Counselor doesn't know what to do to cheer him up, when a servant tells him of a beautiful music box that would certainly make the Emperor happy.  The Counselor presents the Emperor with the music box who is very pleased until he hears something even more beautiful - the song of the nightingale singing in his garden.

    With the help of the same servant girl, the Counselor finds the nightingale and brings her to the Emperor to sing for him.  He is unimpressed with the plan-looking bird until she begins to sing.  He tells the nightingale she must stay in the palace and sing for him always, but the nightingale refuses saying she would prefer to live in the garden where she can fly freely.  The Emperor doesn't trust her and, after an argument, the nightingale flies away.

    The Emperor decides to go back to playing his music box, but in his anger and frustration he breaks it.   He begins to cry and returns to being the lonely and desolate man he was before.  The Counselor and the servant girl work together once again to see if they can mend the situation and bring about a happy ending.

    Treacherous pirates, buried treasure, and a mysterious island have helped make Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure novel, "Treasure Island", one of the most re-told stories of all time.  In our Winking Kat adaptation of this wonderful story, we've added some humor and several fun songs while keeping the mystery, colorful characters, and adventure of the original novel.  And, of course, we couldn't leave out ol' Ben Gunn's love of melted cheese on toast.  So we invite you to join Jim Hawkins on his amazing voyage aboard the Hispaniola to Skeleton Island in the heart of the Caribbean Sea.  All aboard for adventure.

    Winking Kat Tales: Cinderella

    Winking Kat Tales: Cinderella

    Red Series (ages 6 and up)
    copyright © 2019 by P. Haines-Ainsworth & Terence Alaric Levitt
        published by Winking Kat Books

    Winking Kat presents a new, musical adaptation of the familiar tale of "Cinderella".  We've chosen Charles Perrault's sweet, romantic version of the story written in the late 1600's.  It is set in France and has new songs and fun characters (and a little less gore than the Grimm Brothers' version of the story).  Seven fresh new songs make this version something fun and special.

    Be sure to listen to the beginning chapter of this episode.  We have a brief history of this very old tale of a kind, young woman who overcomes hardship and her shyness to pursue her dream of attending a royal ball.  She finally stands up for herself and what she wants, and wins the heart of the prince in the process.

    Book and Lyrics by P. Haines-Ainsworth.  Music by Terence Alaric Levitt.  Narrated by P. Haines-Ainsworth with vocals by Morgan Dietkus, Nick Edmondson, Mary Hould, Jenna Jordan, Katie Moya, Kyla Roberts, and Samantha Victor.
