Studio Hermitage :
Transmedia company Studio Hermitage is excited to present the first episode of its audio drama, Clawmoor Heights. Written and directed by Rachel J. Wilkinson (Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, Vampire: The Masquerade—Port Saga) and starring Kate Siegel (The Fall of the House of Usher), Indira Varma (Game of Thrones), and Byron Mann (The Expanse), Clawmoor Heights combines political intrigue, familial drama, and existential horror.
Beginning earlier this year, Studio Hermitage launched its first transmedia IP, Our Brilliant Ruin, with a successfully crowdfunded tabletop RPG. Set in a world on the brink of collapse, the last remnants of society, known as the Dramark, struggle to make the most of what time they have left, whether that’s throwing elaborate balls, attempting to preserve history, or battling the unstoppable Ruin. Clawmoor Heights continues the company’s endeavors to build out the world of Our Brilliant Ruin through the mediums of audio, graphic novels, video games, and more.
Episode one, “The Illusion of Choice,” sees Truefolk historian Agatha Quinn face expulsion from Crown Hall College when she’s accused of breaching her duties to the guild. To defend herself, she must recount the story of her time working for the Valgreave family at Clawmoor Heights — and the dangerous secrets she uncovered there.
Listen to Episode One of Clawmoor Heights
New episodes of Clawmoor Heights will release weekly on Thursdays at 7 AM EDT on the Our Brilliant Ruin YouTube Channel, the official website, and wherever you get your favorite podcasts.
Clawmoor Heights stars Kate Siegel, Indira Varma, Byron Mann, Shannon Uphold, Jay Sullivan, Seán Patrick Judge, and Jovan Jackson, with additional performances by Ian Gallagher, Kyle Clark, Mark Meer, Andrew Biss, Ruddy Cravens, Callina Anderson, Michelle Nguyen Bradley, Julie Oliver-Touchstone, Dain Geist, Kara Greenberg, Kristen Herink, and Destiny Mosely.
About Our Brilliant Ruin
Our Brilliant Ruin is the first story-world developed by Studio Hermitage. Created for multiple formats, Our Brilliant Ruin features the Dramark, an elitist society unraveling against the backdrop of a preternatural catastrophe called the Ruin. People of the Dramark fall within three broad factions: a self-serving aristocracy, the competent truefolk, and the self-reliant unbonded, each with different societal relationships. Within each of these diverse social factions also exist families, guilds, and individuals that cooperate and conflict with one another. From the wealthy Galdeparks and industrious Daras to the academics of Crown Hall College and hospitality experts in the League of Glove and Key, each group offers numerous opportunities for rivalry, alliances, and romance.
