Inaugural Future Classics radio script competition
A Victorian and a South Australian have triumphed in the inaugural "Future Classics" radio script competition.
From January to March, Adelaide-based radio theatre company, Insight Presents, sought new half-hour radio play scripts for their inaugural radio script competition.
Forty-seven scripts were entered, narrowed to seven finalists and,
eventually, two winners whose work will be performed and recorded before a live audience at the Reynella Memorial Hall in Adelaide, South Australia on 15 July.
Julie Thomson from Naracoorte in regional South Australia scored with her rural comedy, “Down the Road”, set in the 1950s in the lead up to a disastrous church fete. Typically Australian, with loveable characters and familiar situations, the play provides a gentle stream of chuckles and captures the essence of country Australian life.
From Ascot Vale, a suburb of Melbourne, John Papadatos also found success with his outlandish, futuristic farce called “Time’s Justice”, about a mobile court of the future that accidentally mistakes dull Mr Smith from Earth for a notorious galactic gangster.
