Extended Deadline
Due to insufficient casting we have extended the deadline!
The Glass Scientists
Project Overview
This is a fan-made, fan-produced project attempting to dub the entirety of the Glass Scientists webcomic.
The comic created by Sage Cotungo, Lucy Xue, Tiina Purin, Brycen Sochiratna, and Julia Elliott, is a queer retelling of some of the best gothic horror the Victorian age had to offer- Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Frankenstein, and The Island of Dr. Moreau, featuring references to Alice in Wonderland, Carmilla, and the works of H.P. Lovecraft!
More roles will be added as the project gets larger- as we will need more actors as we get further into the series!

Unsolicited Discord Friend Requests
So, people have been trying to bypass the audition process by DMing me on Discord.
Don't do this.
This will not get me to see you as eager or as showing initiative, it will make me feel like you are trying to pressure me into giving you something you want. It makes me uncomfortable, and incredibly uneasy. And it makes me feel like you don't value my time.
I appreciate that some of you are just that excited, but please do things in the right order.
Voice Actor
Dr Henry Cornelius Jekyll
closed
Unpaid
Henry Jekyll is London’s most beloved gentleman scientist, whose silver tongue and beguiling good looks have earned him an open invitation to every respectable house from Belgravia to Baker’s Street. With a spotless reputation and a promising future ahead, Jekyll’s life seems to be nothing short of perfect.
But underneath the charming smile, Jekyll harbors a creeping suspicion that something inside him is horribly, incurably Wrong (his closeted bisexuality might have something to do with it). This suspicion has left Jekyll with an emptiness no amount of fashionable dinner parties can fill, which is why he has lately turned to more scientific solutions to his troubles . . .

(Fearful, stressed) "The Society lives and dies by my reputation. If I'm seen there- if I make one single mistake- Everyone here goes straight to Hell with me."
(Scottish accent peeking out) "Oh, hang on. I'll gie ye anither glass. Thes ane's a wee bit grottie."
(Longingly, with regret) I wanted to tell you. I wanted to tell you so many times. But it's.... hard, for me to say these things out loud."
Voice Actor
Mr. Edward Mulligan Hyde
open
Unpaid
With a sip of a bubbling potion, Dr. Jekyll unleashes his alter ego Mr. Hyde, the embodiment of all the thoughts and desires he keeps hidden from the world. Hyde is the demon to Jekyll’s angel, a creature of pure evil birthed from the darkness lurking in the hearts of all mankind.
At least, that’s what Hyde tells himself. He likes to keep things simple—good and evil, black and white. He doesn’t have time to make sense of the roiling sea of emotions that make up his personality. He would much rather spend his nights stalking the streets of London at, savoring every precious moment of freedom before retreating back into the shadowy recesses of Jekyll’s mind.

(Lustful temptation) Don't you remember how we first fell in love with Rogue Science? How those rapturous tales of necromancers and alchemists captured our heart?"
(Inspirational) "Listen up you wankers! Are we gonna let that old Jackanapes waltz in here with his mangy mutts and blow a hole in our Society? Like hell we are! We're Mad Scientists, and we never go down without a fight!"
(Anxious, on the brink of tears) "I'm scared. I've spent so long fighting Jekyll, but now that he's gone... It's like part of me is missing."
Voice Actor
Sargeant Brokenshire
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to:
Hi Im fin, i do voices and stuff
A Mild-mannered officer of the Law, devout in his pursuit of Justice, but humble and dignified in his pursuits. A bit prejudiced toward paranormal creatures and Rogue science, he is oft easily swayed by Jekyll's soft voice and kind words. But how long will that last?
Voice description:
- english (london)
- male adult
(Sarcastic) "You weave a pretty theory, I'll grant you that."
(Agitated) "Look, even if your Werwolf sprouted wings and a ruddy halo, I still couldn;t let him off the hook!"
(Cheerfully) "Seems like I'm over my head on this one. You're a bit scary sometimes, you know that?"

Voice Actor
Rachel Pidgley
open
Unpaid
Jekyll could not keep the Society running without the help of his day manager, Rachel Pidgley. Rachel may look as sweet as her famous gingersnap cookies, but her soft exterior hides a hard-as-steel determination forged during her hardscrabble upbringing in London’s East End. While not a scientist herself, she enjoys the company of the eccentric Lodgers and has even managed to befriend Mr. Hyde (she bribed him with chocolate). Highly persistent and loyal to a fault, Rachel would not hesitate to move heaven and earth to help a friend in need . . . even if they never asked for help in the first place.

(Playful) "Slipped on a loose spleen at the Meat Market. Say, do you have the final menu for the Exhibition set yet?"
(Confused) "The Forty elephants? You mean that Lady thieves' Gang? Edward, that's just a rumor. They'd never gather out in the open like that."
Voice Actor
Victoria Frankenstein
open
Unpaid
As a young scientist, Victoria Frankenstein gave life to a ghoulish creature sewn together from human corpses. Horrified by her own actions, she abandoned her creature and fled the country, setting off a lifelong struggle as creator and creation pursued each other through the wilderness.
As time went on, tales of Frankenstein’s experiments spread across Europe, her life story adapted into numerous sensational plays and penny dreadfuls. Her biographers took ample liberties with her personal history—notably, changing her gender—but as her fame grew, Frankenstein herself disappeared into obscurity. Most assume her long dead, but some believe she is still out there, wandering the Alpine tundra with her Creature by her side.

(In German, confused) Wie Bitte?
(Tired, exhasperated) All right, Doctor. perhaps I will allow you to treat me.
(terrified) It's not too late to tear down this false idol of respectability!
Voice Actor
The Creature
open
Unpaid
The Creature is Dr. Frankenstein’s monstrous creation and, for the last thirty years, her sole companion in life. Once mortal enemies, the two seem to have come to an understanding of sorts, or at least a semi-functional co-dependent relationship.
The Creature entered into the world with a kind and gentle nature, but years of constant rejection from every person he met have left him with a cynical view of humanity at large. Now, he prefers to spend his days in quiet study and contemplation, enduring human contact only as a last resort.
Voice description:

- deep
- Monstrous
- androgynous
- standard german
(Firm) Friends, you know who we are. You know our story. I come to you now in a moment of great need.
Voice Actor
Assorted members of the Society for Arcane Science
open
Unpaid
Two years ago, Dr. Jekyll founded the Society for Arcane Science, a community of rogue scientists living and working together safely under one roof. Jekyll hopes to prove to the world that scientists can be good, upstanding citizens whose experiments will make life better for everyone. In short, he wants to make mad science respectable.
The Society plays host to over a dozen scientists from all around the world, affectionately referred to as “the Lodgers.” Ranging from alchemists to aeronauts to cryptozoologists, the Lodgers are a colorful, outspoken group whose eager enthusiasm for their work can sometimes put them at odds with their strait-laced leader.
"Uh-Oh! Sounds like Jekyll is on one of his Publicity Rants again!"
"Why don't you join me in exploring the Cosmos- IN A HOT AIR BALLOON!!"
