Writers Lydia Shaw & Edward Court used their lockdown time in 2020 & 2021 to write brand new girl-power musical HATCHED! gathering a cast of West End performers to record in their living rooms, bedrooms and wardrobes when theatres were closed, with a view to making it available for free on Spotify & Apple Podcasts, bringing the magic of musical theatre right to your headphones.
We were delighted to jump on board the project to work on the mixing, sound design and mastering, and you can now listen to all 9 episodes for free on most major podcast platforms.
HATCHED! explores female empowerment, champions equality and hopes to inspire females and allies of all ages. Set on a mythical island where the female birds aren’t allowed to fly, Fallon and her friends set out to change the rules and make the island a fairer place for their new chicks who are about to hatch.
The show has something for all the family (7+), with plenty of fun and adventure for younger listeners as well as exciting, satirical, thought provoking content for adults too. With the final set of episodes out this summer, it’s the perfect summer holiday listen!
HATCHED! features a West End cast, including GRACIE Lai (Jersey Boys, Your Lie in April), Norma Atallah (In The Heights, Follies), Lizzie Wofford (Oklahoma, Phantom), Sophia Lewis (The Great Gatsby) and James Hume (Kiss Me Kate, Mary Poppins).
