is a fiction podcast about how darkness in our lives may reveal a path to love and light.
Each of these short audio plays is written by an award-winning writer and performed by a cast of remarkable actors, including Oscar winners and members of New York City’s Labyrinth Theater Company. Each episode is produced with a full cast and a beautiful, immersive soundscape.

Maybe we catch an ugly view of ourselves and resolve to make a change, or we discover a new capacity for love or forgiveness that in the full light of day we could never have imagined.
Welcome, Friends, to
