Pringle Midwest
Audio Fiction FEST
The National Audio Theatre Festivals is pleased to announce the next evolution of the Pringle Midwest Audio Fiction Revival, June 26th-28th, 2025, at the Compass Music Center & various locations in Downtown Columbia, Missouri.
Do you have special expertise related to audio - script writing, SFX, voice acting, narration, or a myriad of related subjects? Let us know. We’re looking for panel and workshop leaders.
Got an audio script ranging from 5 minutes in length to 40 minutes? Our Saturday night program needs content for our particpants, live band and foley artist to bring to life!
If either of these opportunities has caught your ear, please send your panel/workshop suggestions or audio scripts to us at submissions@natf.org by May 7th.
