Pringle Midwest Audio Fiction Revival: From Page to Performance
Saturday, September 27, 2025
1:15-7 pm workshop + rehearsals + live performance
Vidwest Studios, 1600 Business Loop E, Columbia, MO 65201
Performance Broadcast live from 4-6 p.m. on KOPN 89.5 FM's Open Mike Radio
The Daniel Boone Regional Library's One Read Selection North Woods tells the history of a specific place through a variety of first person sources: letters, poems, journals and even psychiatric case notes. The Pringle Revival live broadcast variety show brings together writers, performers, engineers, and enthusiasts to transform documents into engaging audio performances, through a short script competition and audio theater workshop. Do you have a family document or clipping that tells a unique history about mid-Missouri? Help inspire our content and get involved in the show by submitting page or performance. In partnership with KOPN 89.5 FM, Vidwest Studios, and the Daniel Boone Regional Library One Read Program.
