NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER
The first episode of Season 1 of our Spanish language Audionovela™ Sin temer la noche is streaming now from Siren Audio Studios. At its core, Sin Temer is the story of two worlds colliding in a small frontier town, and about the exceptional individuals who put aside their differences in order to build an exemplary society.
The question we get asked most: Why produce the story in Spanish? Why not just do it in English? To which we instinctively reply: we don't like doing things the easy way when they can be done ten times harder—takes all the fun out.
The serious answer is a bit more complicated.
Sin temer la noche takes place in a Spanish frontier town. There are heroes on both sides of the culture war, but the focus is on the Spanish women who influence the outcome of that war and the future of the town of Amparo. Telling this story in Spanish feels like it's being told from the right perspective.
There are few opportunities for Hispanics to celebrate our stories in what used to be our native tongue. There are even fewer opportunities for Spanish speaking actors to use their skills. We are thrilled to be able to offer a Spanish language series that can be stamped: Made in the U.S.A.
Featured Actor
Arlin Alcalá is outstanding as Cruzita Soto in the Spanish language series, Sin temer la noche. She is both the model and the voice. Arlin's entry into the arts happened while she was earning her Associates Degree in Child Development in El Paso. She entered a beauty contest and became a Finalist. The experience gave her a taste for the arts. Since then she has been writing her own plays, contributing to the community channel, performing in theatre and most recently doing voiceover and modeling for Siren Audio Studios.
The role of Cruzita is one of the most colorful characters of the town of Amparo. She is the servant of Doña Elena Luna — even though she doesn't think of herself that way. She considers herself a surrogate mother to Doña Elena and grandmother to Pilar Luna. She is excitable, fiercely loyal and loves her sotol...for its medicinal qualities of course.
Arlin played the role to perfection.
