2 From Firesign Theatre

The deadline for entry in the Mark Time and Ogle Awards isApril 1, 2005.

If you are a producer of full cast audio in thescience fiction, fantasy or horror genres, now is the time to send entry for the only awards given exclusively for audio theater.

This year is the Ninth Annual Mark Time Awards for science fiction audio, and the Charles Ogle Awards for Fantasy audio.

Mark Time is the character in the old children's SF radio show of the 40s, created by David Ossman of the Firesign Theatre. Charles Ogle was the actor who first portrayed Frankenstein's creation in Edison's 1910 film of that story.

Science fiction and fantasy blend well with the audio medium because they all engage the imagination to the fullest extent.

Awards will be presented at CONvergence, July 1, 2005 inBloomington, MN.
Sponsored by MISFITS.
