Are you a writer who just finished your script and want to get it made? Do you have a handful of great scripts collecting dust and have no idea what to do with them? Looking for an opportunity to get heard and discovered? First Read Radio has your back.
Over the last year, First Read Radio has developed short film scripts into well-crafted radio plays and premiered them on our podcast distributed by FilmShortage.com, Spotify, and iTunes.
What is a radio play? You can think of it as an immersive table read professionally recorded by a team of award-winning actors, directors, and sound designers.

We started First Read Radio because we love short films, and are passionate about providing good stories with a means to be shared and heard. Plus, the process of making radio plays offers a fun way to practice the craft of storytelling for ourselves. We figure it’s a win-win for writers and us.
We accept submissions year-round to give writers the opportunity to submit whenever they are ready. Our team will read your short film and select scripts based on the quality of originality, character, plot, structure, and market potential.
So, if you have a script you feel should be heard, we want to make it!
