Launches August 27, with new episodes releasing weekly on Thursdays.

The Arc One project brought together 10 new and emerging D/disability-identified artists to write and perform new short works — ranging from short stories to monologues to dramatic scenes.

Each one runs about five minutes long. And each one stands entirely on its own.

These aren't excerpts. They aren't previews of something bigger. Every episode of this podcast is its own complete listening experience.

The Arc One cohort performed these works for a live audience at the Roundhouse Performance Centre in May of 2026, accompanied by live mixed sound and music by Mishelle Cuttler. The evening was recorded live by sound designer Malcolm Dow, and now here it is for you to experience over the next ten weeks – one amazing artist at a time.

  • Not in Order by Helen Jiang
    8 Oct 2026

    After the world ends, three characters compete to tell their story, but each is trapped in a hide-and-seek game that challenges their story. But their story, it turns out, is also a trap.

    The Arc One cohort performed these works for a live audience at the Roundhouse Performance Centre in May of 2026, accompanied by live mixed sound and music by Mishelle Cuttler. The evening was recorded live by sound designer Malcolm Dow, and now here it is for you to experience over the next ten weeks – one amazing artist at a time.

  • RIP Anton Chekhov, You Would’ve Loved KN95 Masks and Air Purifiers by Elijah Curror
    27 Sep 2026

    In March of 1897, author and doctor Anton Chekhov is diagnosed with tuberculosis. The same year, two European surgeons introduced gauze surgical masks in medical settings to prevent the spread of bacteria and infectious diseases. In 2026, Elijah walks into Chekhov’s office looking for help managing chronic pain caused by Long COVID, a condition Chekhov has never heard of, and yet knows all too well.

    Content Advisory: medical anxiety
