“Saturday Morning Serial” Podcast
Saturday, February 25th at the BNTC North Austin Studio
8701 W. Parmer Ln. #1122
Actors: 10am to 12pm
Writers: 1pm to 3pm
BNTC is in the early phases of developing a radio serial that will be distributed as a podcast (and potentially expanded into a web series). The concept of the serial is to feature different Austin based talent each week. Each episode will be written by a different writer but will feature the same cast of actors. Every week, the new writer will build on the script that was produced the week before and add their own personal twist to the plot. Each new episode will also feature a different guest musician. Script writing will begin in March and live recordings will begin in April.
Writers
Interviews/Auditions Saturday, February 25th from 1pm to 3pm.
Please bring a five-page writing sample (we would be thrilled if you emailed it ahead of time to brandnewtheatre@live.com). The interview/audition will consist of group discussions and devising exercises lead by the podcast’s director/script supervisor.
Actors
Auditions Saturday, February 25th from 10am to 12pm.
