Doctor Who: Harvest Season
Project Overview
Tin Dog Productions is casting for a new fan-made audio drama set in the Second Doctor era. The serial consists of four 25-miute episodes set to be released in early 2024.
Harvest Season: The Doctor, Ben, and Polly visit a farm in Iowa, in need of a break. But something is amiss. Farmers have been disappearing one by one without a trace, for weeks. As they delve deeper into the mysterious disappearance, they are confronted by an old acquaintance... a sinister force surfaces from the Doctor's past, and threatens to destroy everything in its path. Will the Doctor be able to outsmart the enemy? Or will he succumb to its power? Time is ticking, and lives are at risk- only the Doctor can save the day now…

No prior knowledge of Doctor Who is required although actors playing Doctor Who, Ben and Polly will need to be able to deliver a convincing impression of the characters as they originally appeared on TV.
Recording will take place in December 2023 (dates & times to be arranged around actors' availability). Actors will be required to record lines remotely while on-call with other the rest of the cast. Actors are not required to have professional recording equipment but will need to have the means of recording decent quality audio with a good microphone.
PLEASE NOTE: Actors playing the roles of Doctor Who, Ben and Polly will also be needed to record the 4-episode serial Doctor Who and the Party at the End. Recording will take place over the same period.

There’s some kind of force preying on dormant minds... not to mention dampening electrical systems and radio signals... something that broad must have a frequency, a footprint.

Do you think the reptile geezer could have caused this? That ship of his seemed pretty nuts.
Come on, then, Doctor. Let's go... yeah, go get the Cyberman.
