Yes, Minister!

The powerful series has done it again!

Just received in our in-box from Executive Producer Clare Eden…

The Minister of Chance
starring Julian Wadham,  Jenny Agutter,  Gethin Anthony, Lauren Crace,  Paul Darrow,  Beth Goddard,  Tamsin Greig,  Sylvester McCoy,  Paul McGann
 NEWS RELEASE
The response to our crowd-funding campaign for Episode 4 of the Minister of Chance was incredible and we were able to greenlight it entirely based on fan support.  However, as you may have already heard if you follow us on Facebook or Twitter, we then had to delay its recording because Lauren Crace, our lovely ‘Kitty’,  had a baby!  He’s very beautiful and we’re very excited to be starting recording in a couple of weeks time.

We’ve used the waiting time to get the Episode 5 script ready for pre-production too  –  and this would be the final one in the first season.  In an attempt to get straight onto that after Ep 4  we are therefore starting the crowd- funding campaign for Episode 5 on 23rd of November and it will run for one month until 23rd December with a host of new perks.

We are always overwhelmed by the support of our fanbase and from so many of you, and we really, really appreciate every posting, every retweet and every Facebook mention.  

Thank you. 

Clare Eden
And we couldn’t be happier! MORE Episodes of the Minister of Chance! How awesome is that?!

One Review by One

Lawrence Raw has been hard at work at Radio Drama Reviews

For some time now Mr. Raw has been reviewing audio drama. Beginning with BBC programmes, Mr. Raw has been sharpening his pencil towards some of us in the New Wave of Modern Audio Theatre.

One his latest works? Jack’s Darker Musing’s “One by One”

“This disturbing tale, with more than a distinct echo of Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds, concerned Dan Cummings (John Bell), the self-styled ‘Old-Tmey Man’ of a local Canadian radio station, who is about to retire after having spent a long career in broadcasting, and built up a loyal following… “

Keep up the good work, sir!

LONG MAY YOUR PENCIL SCRIBBLE!

“No, Radio Actually”

Mark Lawson gives us a thought about radio plays that has been rattling around in our brains for a while. Audio drama is a testing ground for plays and movies. It gives writers a chance to practice dialogue and concepts to far flung audiences in ways that never would have seen the light of day before. Harold Pinter and Tom Stoppard are two names that come up immediately when thinking about great British Playwrights.

Of course in this Guardian article, when Spielberg came knocking, legend has it that Stoppard had a message for him.

Passion Play

Have you had a good read of some Audio reviews?

For some time now Lawrence Raw has been reviewing plays and now he’s extended those reviews to Audio Drama. Take a look at this lovely interview with Lawrence at Audiofactory. And send him your radio plays for his thoughtful criticism at www.radiodramareviews.com.

Hot Cross’d Nun

By now you’ve heard about the awesome new Grindhouse Movie trailer our Jack has written and is directing.

Fear not, he’s not abandoning the audio realm, just stretching his creative wings a little to film.

With great gratitude to the amazing John Bell here’s the Radio Trailer to download!

How can you help? Well, funny you should ask. The Production Crew need some lens and gas and money to rent some locations. Nothing too taxing, but still, money they don’t have.

Can you do your part and donate? Just 5 dollars would help.

20 dollars gets you the humorous trailer with John Bell’s alternative sound effects.

50 dollars gets you a Sin Sister poster picture of your choice… that’s coming up soon from a scintillating photo shoot!
Help us reach our goal of 500 dollars and get the trailer made. We promise you won’t regret it!
