Call for Halloween Scripts and Festival Director!

The Post-Meridian Radio Players are proud to announce their 2016 Halloween performance — Tomes of Terror: Campfire Tales!

This year’s show will center around a group of friends telling spooky stories around a campfire, with one large ensemble cast where each actor gets a crack at narrating a spooky tale, while the other actors perform the story. And this is your chance to get in on the action!

We are seeking scripts that are original works, pastiches, or original adaptations of classic campfire tales and urban legends. (We’re also looking for a festival director.) Read more for details!
