Secret Sound Stories

Secret Sound Stories is an interactive, intimate and personal journey for individual listeners. Our company writes stories inspired by images and works of art belonging to an exhibition space: they are told live by hidden actors who follow and observe the listeners without being seen. The actor’s voices are transmitted live into wireless headphones giving life to a unique story, a delicate fusion between poetry and sound which for a brief moment transforms the space into a parallel world of imagination.

CLAUSES

  • Actors must be available for the above-indicated periods
  • Actors must be fluent in English

TO PARTICIPATE PLEASE SEND

  • a brief written text IN ENGLISH inspired by one of the four photographs in the following link (maximum one page)
  • The recording of a part of the text in mp3 format (you can record also with your phone)
  • your CV (NO PHOTO, NO VIDEO)

Please send all the material to: [email protected] AND to [email protected] by NOT LATER THAN the 20th March 2018.
