DRAMA: An Aural Experience™
PRINCIPALS
Season 2 of DRAMA: An Aural Experience™ “Principals”: Set during the inaugural season of a fictional summer stock theatre company in rural Maine, “Principals” follows investigative journalist Nancy as she unravels the mysterious death of an ambitious young artistic director found dead in the woods on opening weekend. What begins as a puff piece quickly spirals into a high-stakes investigation, with everyone from prima donnas to prop masters under suspicion. As bodies begin to pile up, Nancy and the “cast” are drawn into a surreal blend of backstage rivalries, eerie unease, and the chilling realization that the show must go on—even if it kills them.
