YEAA Scripts Table Read (Ghouls)
2026-06-12 13:00 - 16:00 | ACTRA Toronto Main Office, 625 Church Street, Toronto, Ontario, M4Y2G1, Canada
The first YEAA Scripts table read will take place on Friday, June 12, 2026, from 1 to 4 p.m. at the ACTRA Toronto office (625 Church Street, Suite 200, Toronto).
A pre-cast group of YEAA performers will read Ghouls, a thriller feature screenplay by YEAA Scripts founder Kenton Blythe. The story follows Robert, a talented musician who begins hearing voices. After seeking help from a therapist, malevolent creatures begin pursuing him, only stopping when he plays his guitar. Can Robert uncover the cause of the Ghouls before he succumbs to them?
Following the reading, participants will have the opportunity to discuss the script and provide feedback in a collaborative development environment.
Light snacks will be provided.
Capacity is limited. Please RSVP below to watch the table read by 4 p.m. ET on Thursday, June 11, 2026, to confirm your attendance.
