We are stepping out of the genre fiction space to present an anthology that follows the spirit of our show by presenting full-cast immersive modern adaptations of the plays of William Shakespeare. These reimaginings keep the masterful writings' spirit fully intact while making sure that modern audiences are able to fully appreciate the humor and detail of the Bard's masterpieces and hopefully introduce these works to new audiences around the globe. In studio we have Executive Producer Michael Goodfriend to give us a behind-the-scenes peek at the process of making the Play On Podcasts Series.
