Show Topic: Screenplay Readthrough

What We're Looking For

You have a screenplay, and are unsure whether your dialogue will work with actors. We bring actors into the studio to read and discuss your wording. It's often a rude awakening, but excellent therapy.

Requirements

  • A finished screenplay.
  • Ideally, your characters are very complex and layered, because this confronts the typical core issue that an actor can't play an idea, and the depth of the character isn't coming through.
  • You must accept the Submission Release below in order to submit to the show.

If Selected For The Show

  • We'll need need a release from you to appear on the show and discuss your story.
  • You will own the changes we make on the show, with no credit or compensation due to any of us.

Go Ahead And Submit!

  • We'll only respond if we're considering you for the show. But don't feel bad if you don't hear back. Not being selected is mostly about what makes the right show.
  • You will not be added to any email list.
  • Any project pitches will be kept confidential, will not be shared with third parties, and are deleted if we pass.
  • If pitching a project, you release us from liability, should anyone connected to the show be working on a similar idea. Improbable, but not impossible.
