The SAG-AFTRA Houston-Austin Local is excited to announce the return of Script-to-Screen.
The Script-to-Screen series is a live unpaid reading of a selected unproduced work performed by professional actors. It's committed to helping professional writers present their work to local industry professionals and providing a level of talent that can help facilitate casting. Our goal is to provide more work opportunities for industry professionals living in Texas. This year, Nick Nicholson will direct the reading of Hank Slaughter's Possum Kingdom.
You are invited to the Houston-Austin Local's Member Happy Hour Mixer in Houston. This is a casual open forum gathering where SAG-AFTRA members can network, share industry news and ideas, and enjoy catching up.
When: Wednesday, February 12 from 6-8:30 p.m.
