Anthem is an edgy anthology series produced by Topic (Missing Richard Simmons) that tells a unique American story through a distinct musical voice. A groundbreaking and ambitious new podcast that combines music, drama, film and theater, Anthem: Homunculus is the first of its kind to offer audiences an original, Broadway caliber production in podcast form starring top talent, including Glenn Close, Cynthia Erivo and Patti LuPone.
In the premiere season, Homunculus, a broke, solitary, and bitterly funny shut-in, Ceann Mackay (Mitchell), launches the world’s first online radio “tumor telethon” to raise money to remove his brain tumor. The audience is taken on a darkly hilarious journey of his life story through flashback and song until sudden fame arrives when he realizes the thing that is killing him may be the very thing that’ll save us all.
Anthem: Homunculus is a 10-episode podcast series produced by Topic and will be released April 23 on Luminary. The soundtrack – featuring over 30 original songs by Bryan Weller and John Cameron Mitchell, with Weller serving as producer – will be released on May 20. It covers a range of genres including indie-rock, jazz, R&B, folk, soul, country, baroque and dream pop, contemporary classical, and avant-garde.
