THE BITE
In this new scripted podcast from the creators of The Blondes, the wolves aren’t just on Wall Street anymore. The Bite is a 4-episode horror comedy series that follows Tess, a young Brooklyn playwright, who awkwardly stumbles into joining a wealthy all-female werewolf pack in the Hamptons. Tess is like any other struggling playwright who’s made it to Edinburgh Fringe: she mined her complicated life for material. And what would a one-woman show be without embarrassing revelations? But in the first episode of The Bite, Tess also reveals something altogether different: that she has lycanthropic powers. Being a werewolf has complicated her dating life but also greatly improved her career options, especially after she’s taken in by a clique of monied heiresses headed by Diane, a seductive, sociopathic bon vivant. She attempts to mold Tess, but will Tess fight to remain her own person? Performed by Cecilia Corrigan, Jenny Grace Makholm, with Roberta Colindrez (Starz’s Vida, HBO’s The Deuce), Rob Belushi (HBO’s Ballers), Ronald Peet (Netflix’s I-Land) Grace C.
