Universe 9/5
Project Overview
The 9/5 is Multiversal.
Welcome to Universe 9/5 (Working Title). An audio drama/fiction podcast that focuses on Val, a young woman who finds herself thrown out of her mundane routine of life and landed in an alternate universe in which she has swapped places with another version of herself. She now finds herself in peculiar antics with a lot of newfound questions. Alongside that, she now has newfound concerns about corruption within this world. And to top it off she still has to work a crummy minimum wage job!
Hello, I'm Dee Dixologii an Nineteen-year-old artist and budding writer from the UK. I am trying out a new form of artistic expression through audio dramas and I would love to have people along with me for the ride. You might recognise me from Instagram (With my amazing 28.4k Followers) for my artwork but I want to push myself to do something new!
The Rules:
1) All auditionees must be 18 years old or over.
2) Please comment your Discord within your audition as it is easier to contact you this way.
3) All characters speak with a British Accent, please try to emulate this best you can, we also ask all performers be able to work around a UK Timezone (however, you can audition from anywhere in the world!).
4) The scripts contain swearing and themes of violence, if that is something you're not comfortable with please do not audition.
5) Try to have clear audio and remember to have fun with it!
I wish you all luck with your auditions!
You can also join our Discord server for further help on auditions! https://discord.gg/wDVrmRKxxM
