Arts Accelerator is excited to partner with the Miami Film Festival and the Miami DDA to present Live Script Readings on Wed., April 10, 2024 at 7:30 pm at Live Arts Miami!
A live script reading event that connects film enthusiasts, local creatives, and established celebrities in a collaborative interactive experience.
Actors, some local, some you may have heard of, and some “surprise guests” will get on stage and cold read excerpts of scripts ranging from works in progress by local writers, to screenplays of major films playing at the Miami Film Festival, live, with no rehearsal.
The first step in the life of a movie is the table read, where actors read a script aloud together for the first time. Arts Accelerator’s Live Script Readings offers a sneak peek into this otherwise secretive first step in the film production process.
If you’ve ever wondered what your favorite actor was like reading a role for the very first time, or how actors work off each other to bring a character to life, Live Script Readings will offer you a peek into this creative process.
Reading will take place in front of a live audience.
Attendance is open to the public.
Tickets are $22 for general admission, $20 for Film Society Members, and free for MDC students.
Writers and Actors interested in participating can submit their work/reel for consideration by following the submission links in the confirmation email of your ticket purchase.
All performances will be recorded and distributed through Arts Accelerator and Miami Film Festival media channels following the event.
