    Presenting: Victoriocity
    Dec 6 2024
    Dracula: The Danse Macabre is off this week, but while we work on Episode 3 we wanted to share a show we love with all of you. This week: Chris and Jen Sugden's steampunk detective comedy adventure Victoriocity! Listen to the show on their Apple Podcasts page or on their Spotify feed! Visit their website! Learn more about High Vaultage, the first Victoriocity tie-in novel! Support the show! A transcript for this first episode can be found here. * * * A transcript for the message at the top of today's episode: Gabriel Urbina: Hey everyone. Series creator Gabriel Urbina here. I'm back in the feed because... while the count and Mina may have the week off, that doesn't mean that all of you don't need excellent audio fiction content to listen to while they get ready for Episode 3. So I'm here to tell you about another show that I love, and which - if you're enjoying our take on Dracula so far? - you should definitely check out. Gabriel Urbina: This week, I want to tell you all about Victoriocity, the steam-punk comedy mystery detective thriller from Chris and Jen Sugden. Starring the amazing duo of Tom Crowley and Layla Katib as sardonic Inspector Archibald Fleet and intrepid reporter Clara Entwhistle, the series follows their adventures in the Even Greater London of 1887. Ruled over by the mechanized Queen Victoria, Even Greater London is a place of amazing inventions, dark villainy, and high adventure. Gabriel Urbina: Victoriocity is one of those shows where.. you don't just listen to it, it kind of becomes your whole personality for a while after you first encounter it. The performances are pitch perfect, the writing is sparkling, the whole thing just brims with affection for the literature and storytelling tropes of the Victorian era, and it is, I cannot underline this enough, one of the funniest podcasts out there. And there's no time like the present to get obsessed with Victoriocity, since their first tie-in novel, High Vaultage, just came out. So for anyone that's been looking for a... Terry Pratchett-esquie steampunk adventure... well, tell you what, I'm going to do you a favor right now and play the first episode of Victoriocity for you. Gabriel Urbina: So sit back, relax, enjoy, and I'll see you all back here next week for Episode 3 of Dracula: The Danse Macabre, Experimental Purposes. * * * VICTORIOCTY Written by Chris Sugden and Jen Sugden Directed by Nathan Peter Grassi FEATURING Tom Crowley as Inspector Fleet Layla Katib as Clara Entwhistle Peter Rae as The Narrator Gemma Arrowsmith as Augusta Bell Richard Soames as Doctor Salik Christian Flint as The Fisherman Chris Sugden as Chief Inspector Keller Jackie Smith-Wood as Ludy Lucretia Molly Beth-Morosa as Miss Waverley George McLean as The Ticket Inspector Additional voices by Ana Armas Romero, Edwina Christie, Daniel D.
