Girl Genius Radio Theatre

Description

Girl Genius is an ongoing comic book series turned webcomic, written and drawn by Phil and Kaja Foglio and published by their company, Studio Foglio LLC under the imprint Airship Entertainment. It features a female lead character in an alternate-history Victorian-style steampunk setting, although elements veer from what is usually thought of as steampunk. Kaja Foglio, one of the co-creators, describes it as “gaslamp fantasy” instead to suggest its more fantastic style.

For the last few years, Studio Foglio has been performing Girl Genius audio dramas live at science fiction conventions and events in the Seattle area. These are done in the style of old-time radio productions, with the performers standing around the microphone doing their lines in front of live audiences. Some of these performances have been recorded for posterity and archived (see links below).
