Update: 2.26.2020
Our team here at RR is really excited about the incredible voice talent that's been assembled so far!
Today we've received some more "Initial Recordings" and we're beginning to rough in a little of the dialogue!
Keep watching!
Willie's Big Break (Short Audio Drama)
Project Overview
We’re excited to announce casting on this fun little tale of whimsy for one of INDIANA JONES’ most underrated and beloved characters, Willie Scott!
In this story, we get to spend a little time with this endearing character that sadly keeps getting thrown further and further out of her element, eventually landing herself in the lap of chaos!
“Smalltown girl now turned Singer / Actress, “WILLIE" SCOTT has set her eyes on securing herself in the entertainment business. She’s a fiery gorgeous late 20's woman filled with ambition and talent, as long as her bumbling Manager doesn’t get in the way. Tonight is her big chance at the Colonial Theatre, auditioning for Howard Lindsay to be the next lead in the Broadway show of Cole Porter's "ANYTHING GOES"! It’s a great opportunity, but something just seems a little off. What will fate decide? Who knows?! ANYTHING GOES!”

I must say you are most certainly of interest to me.

But you'll find I'm very capable.
Allow him to take your bags.(No Patience / Controlled Volume)
Well then, what are you doing?
Why are you wasting time?
You want my brother carrying her bags for you?!
Quick!
Help him now!(False Pretenses)
He wants to meet you in his office, upstairs.
You'll like it.
More privacy for special talent.

Looking for a warm and slow “Bedtime Storyteller” tempo during the introduction, with something of a Christoper Lee or Vincent Price quality as has been used by Tim Burton to introduce a film. The tempo for the Closing Credits may slightly change from the opening.
Here's a link to a demonstration clip we recorded but would ideally like to replace so we can have new talent involved: https://youtu.be/Pcs2zpoQ2rE
(Bedtime Storyteller Tone)

Big-City Accent.
Fast talking, mid 20’s adult, young but also mildly hardened by city living.
Dry delivery, but quippy and quick-witted.
Speaks loud and clearly, through the closed doors he knocks on.
(Very Fast, No Pauses)

Role assigned to:
Boyd Barrett
Willie Scott's Manager.
Thick New York Accent.
Mid 50’s, deceptive, overweight/balding, nervous but quite innocent “car dealer” type, that weasels and tries everything to manipulate situations for his benefit.
He’s trying to be something he’s not.
He’s a clever enough guy, but not as smart as he thinks.
He is unconvincingly trying to schmooze people.
(Rushed)
You hear that kid?
Yer gonna be up soon.
And then, ya gotta knock’m dead.(A Nervous Agent Trying To Soothe His Client)

Actress needs to strongly emulate the performances and speech of actress Kate Capshaw in ‘Temple Of Doom’. We will very strongly be looking for someone to replicate the way Kate Capshaw sounds.
Willie is outspoken, and wonderful underdog that only feels comfortable in better environments and well-to-do situations, but overall is a good person caught outside her element.
She’s comfortable as a stage entertainer and knows how to survive and thrive in the industry because that’s her world.
But anything outside of it becomes very alien and cringe-worthy to her.
Here's a link to a Character Reference Video that only features scenes of the character Willie Scott: https://vimeo.com/371167140
(Talking To A Child / Childish)
No. My motivation is to sing and dance and to make a lot of money.
Become the biggest star on the Great White Way.
Her motivation is… I don't know what her motivation is?
She's lovelorn?
(Irritated)
I'm not playing some wounded animal, Lenny.
I want her to be strong.
She's seen a thing or two in her time.(Sweetly)
Oh, Hi. You’re a very nice man…
Do you think you can help me? I’m a very famous singer from America to help an important man from your country. (Circumstantial Frustration) For crying out loud! You know, a singer. Don’t any of you speak American?!(Rehearsing / Singing)

Has anyone seen Mr. Lenny Rifkin?
Excuse me ladies, ain't wouldn't any of you seen a Mr. 'Lenny Rifkin'?(Nice / Warm)
Break a leg, ma’am.

Thank you, beautiful. Very nicely done.
You've been wonderful.

Right, I want her, I need her.
We’ll start rehearsals in New York in two weeks and run it in November.(Straight Talking)
Now, now, now.
