Happy New Year all!

We've now uploaded the Little Boots original soundtrack to SoundCloud (plus a fun short 'bonus' promo- available to listen to in the links below). Have a listen!

OST for “Little Boots”, an audio drama in four parts by Daniel Abbott. This was produced and released in 2021 as a collaboration between Blood Sweat and Tea Productions Limited (https://www.bstproductionsltd.com/) and Cwmni Ennyn Awaken Productions (https://www.awakennyn.co.uk/). Original score by Jessica Gittins and Anna Sherratt.

Audio Drama Synopsis:
The Roman Empire is falling apart. As the tyrannical reign of Tiberius Caesar comes to an end, his adopted nephew, Gaius, steps into the breach. Guided by his beloved sister, Drusilla, Gaius seems poised to get Rome back on track... until his mind begins to break. Surrounded by ambitious praetorians, vicious siblings and stubborn senators, Gaius descends into a madness beyond even his own reckoning.
