Outside of Before The Tone, her voice can be heard in upcoming audio drama Super Suits, as well as appearing in a number of other upcoming shows. Aside form voice acting, Rebecca is the co-creator and showrunner of BE NOT AFRAID, a biblical satire about an incompetent angel. She most likely got the whole voice acting idea from her day job as a kindergarten teacher, where it often falls on her to provide the voices of a hundred different characters at storytime… She really doesn’t have to, but she cannot be stopped!

Katharine Seaton (Dialogue Editor, Sound Designer)

I’ve been a musician all my life, but in 2015 I moved towards creative sound and music, focusing in particular on audio productions. I work closely with Rusty Quill, as well as many other producers, including my long-term collaborators at Dayton Writers Movement. My BBC Radio 4 debut was on Easter Day 2023, as composer for the radio adaptation of Ian McEwan’s novel Enduring Love. I am a proud member of Inscape Animations, a group of three women who use drawn animation with immersive sound and music to explore complex ideas and challenge xenophobic narratives. Our work is used to explore migration issues in schools and universities around the UK.
