A random prompt; a random script; a random writer; every episode. The Script Roulette Podcast offers a space for up and coming story tellers to write, have their work produced and for listeners to hear the behind the scenes production of an audio drama.
From the writing process, the actors cold read to the final product of finished work. We’re here to expose new stories, new writers and the creative process of making a play!
Co-Creared by Evrim Şen and Benny Redfern with support from Joshua Cowie - Creative Producer at The Channel
