Chicago Whovians United

We’re holding a special Big Finish listening party for our members as a CONSole Room pre-event. We know it will be cold and snowy for many, so we’re holding it on Zoom.

And we’re providing two audios featuring two Doctors...and a nemesis that you wouldn’t expect to work on audio.

The Night of the Vashta Narada - Funworld was set to be the happiest planet in the galaxy. A planet of joy, of euphoria, of laughter and delight. Except construction was marred by reports of a predator and then, a few days before opening, all communication ceased.

Owner Georgia Donnelly is desperate to open the resort and has hired Amanda Steele's crew to find out what happened on the planet. They're the best. But even they might not be up to the task.

Joined by the Doctor and being picked off one by one, they slowly start to realise that something terrifying lurks in the shadows.

The Day of the Vashta Narada - As the Time War rages, Cardinal Ollistra of Gallifrey seeks to create ever more dangerous weapons to deploy against the enemy.

When the Doctor stumbles across Synthesis Station, he discovers that the Time Lords have sponsored a project to weaponise already-lethal creatures. But in doing so, Eva Morrison and her team have unwittingly used a colony of Vashta Nerada with a very unfortunate history of humanoid contact.

The Doctor finds himself leading a desperate race for survival, in which the shadows may be the least of their worries...

Please join us via Zoom for an afternoon of audio listening pleasure...and terror...
