FRIENDS, THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED. STAY SAFE AND BE WELL. THANKS.
Join us for on March 28 for a reading of scripted audio fiction in progress!
Jesus Pancake is an audio fiction series being collaboratively written by the Soapbox Audio Collective, a team of local writers.
Microwaves, family secrets, spiders, friendship, and the Power of the Pancake converge in this dark comedy about a middle-aged woman reckoning with her power for the first time. Aimee is intrigued when a pancake she makes looks just like Jesus, until she realizes something truly profound and dangerous is at work.

- Episodes 4-6 will be read on April 13.
