Description

For the final episode from the Artist Propulsion Lab class of 2023, cellist Zlatomir Fung wrote a new Christmas audio drama, The Elves and the Cello Maker, based on the Brothers' Grimm fairytale, "The Elves and the Shoemaker," for which he also composed the music. He updated the original fairytale to focus on a young cellist in New York, her cello maker father, and two of Santa's elves, as she prepares for a solo in her school concert.Cast (in order of appearance): Q - Thorgy ThorSpy Boss - Brooke GladstoneJune - Briana HunterHenry - Jeff SpurgeonDorothy - Lulu MillerFi - Nicholas CanellakisSev - Miyan LevensonNorth Pole Network Announcer #1 - Kerry NolanNorth Pole Network Announcer #2 - Arun VenugopalCello Teacher - Clayelle DalferesMusic Boss - Elizabeth NonemakerNorth Pole Network Announcer #3 - Paul CavalconteCarter Brey appears as himselfUber Driver - Zlatomir FungNYPD Officer - LaFontaine OliverNimet Habachy appears as herselfMusic composed by Zlatomir Fung, and performed by cellists Zlatomir Fung and Nicholas Canellakis.
