Hello everyone!
We are producing a new audio drama, Huck Finn Versus The World, that is an abridged adaptation of the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, but here is the twist: it's set in a steampunk world!
The scripts for the 5 episodes have been written, and we have a few characters that we need to fill for the third Episode.
If you are interested in playing one of the roles please use the audition lines below.
BUCK GRANGERFORD, fourteen year old boy from Kentucky. Generally good natured, inventive, kind. MILD KENTUCKY ACCENT.
(suspicious) Well, who are you? I thought you were dead and nekked.*Say something you think would fit*
(chuckles) Come on then! Ma’s breakfasts are the best! Probably because we got the best cogwork cook this side of the Mississip!
(proudly) My pa owns a cogworking manufacturing company. He lets me have extra parts – like if they make too many or stop using a model because they advance to another. He still makes some steam run cogworkings, but we are trying to get more folks over to tamkwarin.
MR. GRANGERFORD, forty-four year old man from Kentucky. Father to Buck, owner of local cogworking factory. Professional, pleasant, confident. MILD KENTUCKY ACCENT.
(chuckles) Really?
Buck has been working with me since he could talk. If he thinks to call you an inventor, he’s probably right. Perhaps you could show me your design sometime.
Who? (scoffs) What. For thirty years they’ve been trying to take our company down to nothing, and for thirty years we’ve resisted their incessant whining and pretentious mewling. They’ve tried everything from protests to lawsuits to assassination attempts, but they will not succeed. They did not triumph against my father, and they will not taste victory against me.
PREACHER, mid 50s man from Kentucky. Preacher at the local church. STANDARD KENTUCKY ACCENT.
And what is so important? (pause) Brotherly love! It says in First Peter: add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. (pause)(fades out) Without love, what are we?
Have a blessed week! See you next Sunday.
SOPHIA GRANGERFORD, eighteen year old girl from Kentucky. Sister to Buck. In love with boy from feuding family. Sweet, thoughtful, a little sad. MILD KENTUCKY ACCENT.
(low voice) Could you be so kind as to do me a favor and check for a note inside the fourth Bible in the front row, right over there on the Shepherdson side?
(delighted) Oh, thank you, George!
(sighs) Nobody’s quite sure. They say that thirty years ago there was a cogman old Mr. Shepherdson and Grandpa Robert got into a fight over. Both claimed him as theirs and the cogman wouldn’t take sides.
