I need voice actors!

[Sleeves]

I'm doing a one night only Christmas show in December and I need voice actor help.

"Whisper, Pray, Make Room" is a reinterpretation of Dickens "Christmas Carol" - with music and done in a Talk Radio Show setting. If you've seen Eric Bogosian's "Talk Radio" and can somehow picture Scrooge behind the mic as an extremist talk radio host, you'll start to see what this is all about.

Blowhard and Dr. Steve are both on board - Blowhard as the Caller of Christmas Past, Dr. Steve as the Xmas Future.

So basically, I'm looking for people to call in and leave voice messages that I would play live during the performance with a Soundboard.

If you're interested please read more about it here. (http://radioghost.com/?p=448)

If you don't want to read more about it, but want to do it, please:
1. call (603) 722-0540.
2. Leave a voice message for fictional extremist Talk Radio host Steve "The Sledgehammer" King.
3. You can love him or hate him, but please don't curse (family show).

All participants will be credited and sent a small slice of Christmas Goose.

I would like to try out, but I've been told I have a slight Long Island accent,

it just doesn't seem like it would fit

[IMSlacker]

I hope Radio-Shark calls.

[Snoogans]

what type of show so I know what type of question to ask

[Sleeves]

what type of show so I know what type of question to ask

It's kind of like Michael Savage at his worst. Kind of a hate radio kind of thing. Imagine the sort of talk show Ebenezer Scrooge might have.

I'll be putting together an audio clip of the opening 15 minutes in the next few days and that might help.

But a Snoogans Tip would be fine. :)

This isn't an English thing. It's based over here. The fictional show is set in NYC.

Long island accent is fine.

And i hope Radio Shark calls too! (603) 722-0540

[Snoogans]

Local or National show?

Just curious if a "red state" caller would be appropriate.

I'm starting the 4th week of my voice over class so I'd love to join in. Let me know what you need.

[Sleeves]

A minute is probably the longest...and the aliens things sounds cool.

Or you could do an indirect Tip...like "Hey Steve! I loved how you were talking about all these slow drivers the other day and said they were the scourge of the earth, bringing everything to a standstill and ruining the economy..." And then go into a personal experience about the same...

the alien thing is fine tho...

National...Red State caller is fine.

I would love to be part of it. Will there be topics hit at all? I'd like to call and be relevant to the show at hand. Or even refer to a prior caller in the same show.

[Dirtybird12]

done & done. plz send the check to charity:smile:

will this be available on dvd for the far & away people?

[Snoogans]

alright I left one. Good luck my man. I hope it works for you

I was gonna work up a few scripts today, but didn't have time...I'll write em up tomorrow and that should give you a good sense.

Really though, if there's any Talk Radio dude who offends you - Rush L., Michael Savage, Beck, Al Franken, Dr. Laura...whoever it may be and whatever their politics - just aim toward that.

Steve "The Sledgehammer" King is hated by his fans for every reason under the sun.

603 722-0540.

That was perfect. Thanks so much!

Dude, awesome! Thanks!

I think someone will be filming with the shaky cam...I'm hoping to just post it on blip or one of the video places.

Cool. I think this sounds really awesome. I'm having bad allergies today, I am definitely calling over the weekend.

[GregoryJoseph]

Anyone who doesn't do this is out of their mind.

It's a blast!

You just call and leave a voicemail...simple as that.

[Sleeves]

I was gonna do some scripts but I got a bunch of really good calls.

Thanks everyone! :)

I'll be putting together an audio version of the whole thing in the next few weeks and uploading. And crediting all parties. And sending geeses out by way of the wind.
