We hope you enjoy this sample episode of Anthem: Homunculus, a new fiction podcast from our friend John Cameron Mitchell and Bryan Weller. Anthem features 31 original songs delivered by 40 actors (with 7 Tony Awards®) and 30 musicians on one unconventional audio stage. (Glenn Close sings a punk song nailed to a cross, Patti Lupone is a junkie nun singing bebop, Cynthia Erivo is Joan the Baptist spreading the Gospel of the Virgin Mary.) Anthem teeters on the razor-funny knife-edge of life as the characters struggle to live after loss, love after hate, and survive in a world flirting with Apocalypse. Created by John Cameron Mitchell and Bryan Weller, Anthem: Homunculus is the first in the new anthology series from Luminary Media and Topic Studios. New episodes will publish each week only on Luminary Premium. Subscribe to keep listening.
