Elaine Lee and Michael Kaluta’s science fiction comedy masterpiece comes to the world of radio drama as The AudioComics Company announces their debut full-cast audio production of Starstruck on compact disc and pay-per-MP3 download; the show will also air on selected radio stations throughout the United States, beginning with WMPG FM in Portland, ME. The recording of the play that became the critically-acclaimed independent comic book series comes just after the completion of the re-mastered 13-issue Starstruck comic series from IDW Publishing, which will be available as a 360 page hardcover collection in February of 2011.

Produced by The AudioComics Company in association with Portland Community Radio WMPG, the audio adaptation of the original off-Broadway production was adapted for the medium of audio by co-creator Elaine Lee, and directed by AudioComics Company co-founder William Dufris (best known to audiences as the voice of “Bob the Builder.” The recording also employs composer Dwight Dixon’s re-recorded music from the original 1980’s stage productions, as well as several new compositions.

When the Harpy runs into a living ship inhabited by a team of galactic evildoers, including Galatia ’s insidious sister Verloona Ti, the outcome of the battle may well decide the fate of the free universe!
