A proposito di questo titolo
Based on the origin story of the Grand Guignol theatre in Paris, Theatre of the Damned is a full-cast audio drama which explores the blood-curdling depths to which struggling immigrant theatre producer, Camille Choisy (Amir El-Masry), penniless Parisian playwright, Andre De Lorde (Sam Crane) and aspiring actress, Paula Maxa (Kelly Burke), will stoop in order to satisfy their audiences’ blood-thirsty appetite and gain Faustian profits.
Tired of having his work savaged, De Lorde writes a vengeful ‘outburst’ of a play featuring bigoted critics, gore and torture which horrifies and delights the audience. The once-failing theatre is suddenly overrun by a demand for tickets.
It seems Choisy has identified a gap in the market. But he also has to fend off interests in the property from his brothel running neighbour, Madame Douska, and the attentions of some shadowy, blackmailing Corsicans.
As the lines between what is real and what is theatre become devastatingly blurred, how far are Choisy, De Lorde and Maxa willing to go to validate their art and maintain their newfound stardom?
