Born to Teachers and Amateur Audio Enthusiasts in the small rural community of Belwood, Jack's first love was stories- writing, reading, telling, and singing. He developed his acting skills through High School, University, and through film and community theatre.
Jack writes the lion's share of Sonic Cinema Production's (previously Electric Vicuna) Audio Drama scripts and has his own writing site at www.jackjward.com. Jack also is the middle of book writing, screenplay production, and is the CEO of the Mutual Audio Network- where he and the best people in the world Listen & Imagine, Together!.
He's thrilled to co-host the Sonic Society with his wonderful, talented, friend David Ault as they enter their second decade in the medium!
We’re back with Mutual Presents, I’m Jack Ward for the Mutual Audio Network. We continue our series with audio replays of this past summer’s MAD-CON 2021 Events. This week on our fourth panel Jeff Adams of Ice Box Theatre hosts a session entitled “Lines and Layers” with panellists, Lothar Tuppan, Pete Lutz, and Tanja Milojevic! You can find all full videos on the Mutual Audio Network Channel!
It’s another visit with our favourite recreation regulars- Larry Groebe and Project Audion with “”Bob and Rae”! Not too many stars from the OTR era have also hosted Saturday Night Live and a Broadway show, but comic geniuses Bob & Ray did it – and so Project Audion salutes them with a recreation of the offbeat, deadpan humor that aired on radio networks across the country for years starting in the early 1950s. John Bell in Alabama, and Pete Lutz in Texas take on the many characters created by Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding in an assemblage of sketches – both familiar and obscure – designed to replicate the kind of free flowing absurdity they did so well. You’ll recognize a couple of Mutual’s finest from our United Artists of Audio doing their amazing work!
This week, Fairies wreak havoc on the lives of their favorite human podcasters during 2020 lockdown. This modern adaptation of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, set during 2020 NYC with bickering fae, flirtatious mortals, and a podcast within a podcast, must be the work of none other than The Faustian Nonsense Network. This phenomenal group has a beautiful collection of audio drama, fiction, and live play shows and much, much more. But we begin with their first outing with “A Midsummer Quarantine, episode 1- An Honest Puck“! It’s Audio Drama time!
We return to Mutual Presents with Season 2’s audio replay of MAD-CON 2021 Events. We continue with our third session “Story Structure” with host Jack Ward and panellists Steve Schneider, Tony Sarrecchia, Neil Jones, Robert Arnold! All full videos can be found on the Mutual Audio Network Channel!
We’re back with Season 17! Jack and David welcome one and all to the world’s largest and longest-running showcase of modern audio drama!
For our premiere, we have a dynamite double-feature beginning with James O’Neill’s “The Scarlet Cross“.
And Residents of Proserpina Park from Angela Yih! The park is a beautiful and wonderful place with no screaming children, crowded spaces, or trash littered everywhere. The catch? The park residents might not be so welcoming. Welcome back, it’s Audio Drama time!
We return to Mutual Presents with Season 2’s audio replay of MAD-CON 2021 Events. We continue with our second session “How to Approach Your Project”with host Lothar Tuppan and panellists Michael Wilhelm, Bill Arrowood, and Robert Arnold! All full videos can be found on the Mutual Audio Network Channel!
And finally in our season finale for Sonic Summerstock 12 we have Pete Lutz with The Narada Radio Company Presenting: “The Derelict”. An episode of the hit radio series “Escape”, originally Aired In 1953. Producer Pete chose to put a sci-fi spin on this tale of shipwrecked castaways. Other than that, it’s the same story Of treachery, deceit and murder that went out over the airwaves 68 years ago!
Jack Ward sits in with David Ault for this final performance.
