(Saddle Brook, NJ) – The Radio Repertory Company of America has just completed production on its seventh feature length audio drama starring television star, Ellen Muth.

The program is being released in time for the holiday season and is also scheduled for broadcast on Sirius/XM Satellite Radio early next year.
Muth is best known for her work in the Showtime series, “Dead Like Me,” in which she played the role of Georgia “George” Lass, a teen-aged nonconformist who is killed and then returns as a grim reaper. Muth received an AFI award for her work as Constance in the film, “The Young Girl and the Monsoon.” She also received a best supporting actress award at the 1995 Japanese Film Festival for Dolores Claiborne. On television, she has appeared on “Law and Order” and “Normal, Ohio.”

Others in the government, however, vow to stop her.
