Wishing you the very best for the coming week from everyone at Rusty Towers!
Thank you Magnus fans for all of your excitement over the mid-season finale we shared last week. Many of you who participated in the ARG, or watched the documentary preview we shared with the digital premiere of The Magnus Protocol will know that we’ve been waiting a long time to properly introduce Mr. Bonzo to you all. We’ve loved seeing the reaction online, and the amazing fanart for Mr Bonzo and the entire series so far! If you loved Sam Jones’ music for episode 10, it has officially been released onto Spotify as a single for you to enjoy!
We are now on a short break for both The Magnus Protocol and Neon Inkwell as we work on upcoming episodes. However, we will still be sharing some bonus content over the next few weeks. First up – do you have any burning questions for the cast of The Magnus Protocol after the first ten episodes? Submit your questions for Shahan Hamza, Billie Hindle, Anusia Battersby and Lowri Ann Davies using our short form. You could ask about the inspirations behind their characters, how they found recording certain events within the show or something unrelated to The Magnus Protocol: what’s their favourite movie, whether they think duck-sized horses could win in a fight against horse-sized ducks… whatever you like. Please note, the submission form is anonymous and that we’re unlikely to be able to answer every question submitted. The submission form will close on Sunday 24th March at 23:45 GMT and is open for Citizens, Knights and Nobles. We’ll be sharing the cast responses to questions on 4th April 2024.
Next up we have some very exciting news about the next Neon Inkwell short series, The Pit Below Paradise. Today, we’re delighted to introduce you to the cast and the crew of the show. Firstly meet the writer, J. Evelyn Gaskell, and directors Micah Rodriquez and Stephanie Resendes, who you may know from their show How It Ends.

We’re also very pleased to introduce you to the incredible cast who will be bringing this show to life: Ian R.Q. Slater as Dori/Dorian, Phi Hamens Nelson as Will, Victoria Cheng as Ruth, Isabel Kruse as Paulette and Kristopher “K.T.” Thomas as Ned.

At the top of the image is the words: Neon Inkwell: The Pit Below Paradise. Below this are five square photographs: Ian R.Q.

The Pit Below Paradise launches on 19th April 2024 on the Neon Inkwell podcast feed, or on the 17th April for Knights and Noble Patreon subscribers. It follows Dorian/Dori (he/her), the central religious figure in the basil-loving community of Paradise Village. Dori is certain of his future – until the date of his sacrifice is rescheduled and Dori is forced to enter the wider world and attend a local college. Will, a former gravedigger and Dori’s new roommate, has no reason to suspect that she is more than she seems… The Pit Below Paradiseis a refreshing blend of drama, humour, and yes, romance that you won't find anywhere else!
Have a good week all!

Can't wait for TPBP, that is <i>such</i> a premise and I get more excited the more we hear about it.

A gender-fluid character in the next Neon Inkwell story? Sounds fantastic! Love the queer voices in your casting!
