Purgatory, Missouri - podcast cover

Purgatory, Missouri

"Purgatory, Missouri" is a supernatural thriller that asks the question: can sleep and the Afterlife collide? It stars Dave Foley (Kids in the Hall, Fargo), Mindy Sterling (Austin Powers, The Goldbergs), Crissy Guerrero (In the Heights, American Mariachi) and Alina Foley (The Spy Next Door, The League). In "Purgatory, Missouri", an epileptic woman falls into a coma and finds herself in a grimy, rundown carnival, where the sky is grey and danger is everywhere. Each Newcomer gradually loses their memories of who they were while the carnival itself seems to be ripping apart. Why do people meander aimlessly in a constant state of terror? Trouble is everywhere - are you ready? You can find out more about the show and the Dark Americana songs it was based on at https://www.stuartpearsonmusic.com/purgatory-missouri-home
