Call for Playwrights for The Whiskey Radio Hour in Chicago
The Whiskey Radio Hour is currently taking submissions of ten-minute plays for Episode 28 and beyond. The date of our next show is not yet scheduled, but will likely be in September. We hope to program the next few episodes during this cull. This opportunity is unpaid.
Kindly email whiskeyradiohour@gmail.com with your complete script (in either .doc or .pdf format) by Sunday, May 26.
Only complete scripts will be considered.
Your play can be in any genre you like, but try to engage the radio play format in some way. Make us HEAR your play and don't have parts that must be seen to be understood. Give our Foley artist something creative to do...not just footsteps.
Due to space constraints, up to four actors can perform in each radio play. Therefore, actors will play multiple roles if there are more than four characters in your piece.
Each writer can submit up to two radio plays.
Each episode of the Whiskey Radio Hour is recorded, and then put on the internet for anyone to download free of charge. To check out past episodes, visit our bandcamp page: https://whiskeyradiohour.bandcamp.com/
