SPIRE

'Who are you? Why are you here?'Something strange is going on in Spire. Following the death of one of the city’s most important figures, it's clear that change is in the air. But when two inhabitants of the city, Malachi and Cosima, find themselves curiously swapping places back and forth, they begin to realise just how curious Spire is. And exactly how deep down the rabbit hole goes.SPIRE is a sci-fi, surrealist audio drama by Antimatter Productions.
