Signal from Station 9
An original fifteen-minute radio play.
A live radio drama in the old style: four voice actors, an AI narrator, and sound cues spoken by an AI foley voice. In an Arctic research outpost, a radio operator picks up a signal from a station that was abandoned in 1961, and it is asking for her by name. Original script.
Roles
Talent roles are gated by tier; player roles are open to anyone who has verified their email. Any role can be covered by an AI understudy if the producer's fill policy allows it.

You are the voice on the radio: patient, slightly delayed, like someone speaking from a long way off. Never raise your volume. Let the static do it.
