BLACK Actors with strong Impro Skills wanted for
Forum Theatre Radio Series

Noh Budget Films has been commissioned by Galaxy Radio 102.5FM www.galaxyafiwe.com to broadcast their weekly interactive-participatory episodic drama series 492 Korna Klub.

We want to create a pool of performers from which the cast of each episode can be drawn.

The series ‘492 Korna Klub’ focuses on an Afro Caribbean family deciding to return back home, after 50 years of life in the UK. They run a community centre in their spare time near to where they live in Ancessington. Their forthcoming silver wedding anniversary plans to handover their possessions to their siblings’ leads to difficulties. Staff at the community centre are up in a peril organising activities and events for survival.

The series explores the themes of family, community and social and political injustices. It also offers to illustrate the solutions to unite and heal the problems that exist and blight that community.
For more information on the project go to:
www.492kornaklub.com

We require a wide range of actors/voices in different ages, genders and ethnicity for the on-going series.
.
There is no pay but we reward you with being part of an innovative exciting project where you can develop and enhance your performance skills working alongside industry professionals.
