05. Monkey

On the edge of town, camping in the woods near a freeway onramp, a man, stripped of everything, is confronted by his son over a long-forgotten promise.

Monkey was originally produced in Los Angeles at Moving Arts Theatre Company. Max Franko co-produced with 99 Seats in Your Skull. Fun fact: Almost everything in this audio drama is based on / inspired by, real stuff. My uncle was homeless by choice for a long time. My great uncle gave me a fossilized mud crack for my birthday. My dad promised to buy me a monkey but didn't. This was all recorded online during the pandemic so if you notice some inconsistent vocals -- hey, sometimes that's just the way it goes. Thanks for listening.
