Night Vale Welcomes You to The Orpheum
Imagine living in the small, dusty town of Night Vale, where nothing much goes on, until you open your ears to the quirky oddballs who roam about the local dog park, as though no one’s watching…or listening. That is what the #1 International Hit Podcast, ‘Welcome to Night Vale’ is all about to its fans. Narrated by the straightforward, monotone timbre of Cecil Baldwin, the stories heard in ‘Welcome to Night Vale’ span from frightening mystery to laugh out loud strange. Quiet locals mingled with maniacs cover the ground of Night Vale, keeping listeners on their toes. Hitting the desert road with a US Spring 2015 tour of live shows, the creators and voice actors of ‘Welcome to Night Vale’ will be presenting a never before heard script, live music and surprise guest stars when they come to Los Angeles.
Written and produced by Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor, ‘Welcome to Night Vale’ has been topping the iTunes podcast charts since 2012. Consistently releasing two podcast episodes, a month, ‘Welcome to Night Vale,’ has built a widespread fan base all over the world, as the curiosity for what goes on in a small town in the southwest US continuously grows.

In addition to the conspiracy theories of Night Vale locals, the podcast is filled with intricate, elusive music interludes by Disparition.
