    Cornucopia Radio Podcast 70: A Season of Changes

Kathy slowly worries about what she has lost and Jane tries to come to terms with what she now has to cut away. It is a season of change for all four of them and that's when the lightbulb flickers for a brief moment before the filament breaks at its weakest point and everyone is left in darkness. We all know it's only temporary, and lightness will surely soon return, but can we ever be sure? 'A Season of Changes' is our new audiodrama, recorded in Sheffield and telling the story of four people whose past misfortunes and future hopes become intertwined through a thin dividing wall.
