PRESS START TO DIE
Doctor Who: Resplendent is an alternate-universe fan audio series created and showrun by Aeryn Novell, which I am co-producing!
The Doctor and K-9 visit Arcadia, the theme park that covers the entirety of a small moon! What should have been a break from the action turns to retro-futuristic chaos! Can the Doctor and K-9 save the day before it’s Game Over?
This series is currently in preproduction, with casting for each episode beginning at the first of each month! So feel free to check back often!
Your personal park companion! He will go out of his way to make sure you have the absolute best experience Arcadia has to offer! He has a bubbly personality when he is in your wristband as a virtual assistant, but a little more relaxed and "cool" when in the meet and greet animatronic. Think like Figment the Dragon, or Rambley Raccoon!
“Hiya, travelers! Flick Foxley here! Arcadia is just moments away! So keep your paws, claws, tentacles, and pseudopods inside the Glowline at all times! And remember! In Arcadia, everyone plays!”
“You are now approaching the Arcadia Dream Pavilion! Home of today’s special guest appearance with Mr. Thaddeus Pip himself! And, of course, little ol’ me!
(Animatronic, defensive) “You have attacked Arcadia. I cannot allow you to continue to do so.” (explosion, enraged) “WHAT DID YOU DO???”
The big man himself, the visionary behind the theme park called Arcadia. An overly jubilant man who loves to interact with the guests!
“Welcome, welcome, welcome! New faces! Splendid coat. Lovely dog! I wont have to worry about you making a mess now, will I? Thaddeus Pip! Dreamer, collector, and professional overspender! And who might you be?”
“I had a dream as a young child. You see, my father owned an arcade. A genuine arcade. Greasy pizza, token arcade cabinets, neon lights… He had inherited it from his father before him, and their father before that! (sad sigh) My father didn’t share the love all the generations before did. And business just wasn’t great in the 3000’s in New Wisconsin. So… he sold it. It broke my little heart. So I decided I wanted to open a new arcade. A better one! That dream grew and grew, until… (chuckles) Well, you see the result!
“I haven’t had any issues with Flick. Unlike my former business partner. He had money, but the greedy git just wanted more and more! Raising prices, underpaying staff… It goes against everything I believe! Goodness. You should have seen the queues before! Some guests would wait six hours for fried nebula noodles!”
Professional, overly friendly theme park staff member. These don't have to be humanoid, so feel free to have fun coming up with a creative voice! As long as its easy to understand! We are hiring 2 staff member voices!
(Announcing to the crowd) “Welcome to Arcadia’s Arrival Plaza! Please proceed in an orderly and enthusiastic manner!”
(Personal, directly to an individual) Hello and welcome to Arcadia! Is this your… (confused)...service animal?”
“Oh yeah! He handles all scheduling now. I haven’t had a stressful shift in years! I get plenty of off time. Best job I’ve ever had!”
A big, booming voice, used for announcements!
“Welcome to PAR(as in golf)-adox Planet! Please keep all limbs, tentacles, and secondary appendages away from the singularities!"
“Double Eagle! Quantum Bonus! Multiball Activated!!!”
“Welcome, players, to the Constellation Realm! Tonight’s battlefield configuration: Neon Ruins!”
Young children eager to have a fantastic time at a theme park! We are casting 6 children voices in this episode! And they can be alien sounding too!
“Mommy! Mommy! I got an ice cream! I got a… (drops it) Oh, no…
“Dad! Dad! Can we go back to the bubble place? Or, no! The laser tag!”
“Aw, man! I keep losing!”
Yes, a child from THAT race of Doctor Who!
HOON HOON!
(Feel free to ad lib other Judoon noises. Have fun!)
General theme park guests. We are casting 3 general guest voices! These can be alien voices if you fancy it!
“Heck yeah! Sky Ruins got the vote! Love the anti-grav corners on that track!”
“Look at all those tokens! Is this some sort of show? Best day ever!”
Think of the Cybermen from “The Five Doctors.” We are casting 2 of them!
“Resources have increased by four percent.”
“Excellent. Optimal efficiency achieved”
These make up much of the maintenance workforce of the theme park. Feel free to come up with a fun robotic voice! No need to do vocal modulations. We can do that in post!
“One replacement ice cream”
“Excuse me, guest!”
“My sincerest apologies! Let me help you.”
A man who is tired from their marriage.
(to himself) “I should have just stayed home…”
(annoyed) I’m not doing another three hour queue!”
“I think I just need five minutes where nobody needs something from me.”
She knows her marriage is strained, but is doing her best to keep the family together.
“Oh! It’s the little fox thing!”
“Oh, no. I couldn’t just leave the boys!”
(Uncertain) “Are you sure you’re alright?”
Competitive laser tag players. We are casting 6 of these!
“You’re going down this round!”
“This game’s stupid! I was winning earlier!”
“Team! To me! We can catch the objective if we just stick together!!!”
