About this listen

 A scripted, episodic audio drama that explores human connections, made and missed, with an existential flare (and an all-star cast!). Whether consumed together or independently, the comedy, tragedy, and soul of Around the Sun embraces one character’s assertion that, “We’re never alone… even if it feels like the opposite is often true.” The anthology series is created by Brad Forenza, and produced via remote technology throughout the pandemic, and onward. -- Across seasons, Around the Sun features the voice acting talents of: Adassa (Encanto), Caroline Aaron (Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), David Alan Basche (The Exes), Joanna Bonaro (Good 'n Screwed), Dolores Catania (RHONJ), Mindy Cohn (Facts of Life), François Clemmons (Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood), Lilli Cooper (Spring Awakening), Veanne Cox (Cinderella), Gretchen Cryer (Getting My Act Together and Taking it on the Road), Robert Funaro (The Irishman), Joe Gilford (Finks), Judy Gold (Kill Me Now), Wilson Jermaine Heredia (Rent), Terry Hu (Zombies 3) Richard Kind (Mad About You), Richard Kline (Three's Company), Jennie Kwan (California Dreams), David LaRosa (Tale of Nicky Newark), Piper Laurie (Carrie), Marsha Mason (The Goodbye Girl), Cady McClain (All My Children), Christine Nagy (106.7 Lite FM), Estelle Parsons (Bonnie and Clyde), Vincent Pastore (The Sopranos), Austin Pendleton (My Cousin Vinny), Taylor Purdee (Killian and the Comeback Kids), Alysia Reiner (Orange is the New Black), Jai Rodriguez (Queer Eye), Sarah Saltzberg (Putnam County Spelling Bee), Sally Struthers (All in the Family), Maureen Van Zandt (The Sopranos​), Bruce Vilanch (Hollywood Squares), BD Wong (Jurassic Park), Ryan Wotherspoon (Fogg), and Brad Forenza (series creator: Around the Sun)… all playing humans (and a few aliens, constellations, etc.), yearning to connect. -- Around the Sun is a Best Version of Yourself production, as presented by the Broadway Podcast Network.
