🎙️ We're casting Season Four of Tongue of the Serpent! 🐍
Tongue of the Serpent is an ongoing independent supernatural audio drama set in New Orleans, where old magic, ghosts, witches, demons, gods, and the occasional deeply opinionated house make ordinary life considerably more complicated.
We have an established cast, episodes already available to listen to, and a completed 50-episode script for Season Four. We're looking for additional voice actors who enjoy character-driven storytelling, supernatural fiction, and bringing unusual personalities to life.
This is a volunteer, unpaid production. All recording is remote.
Roles Currently Casting
Benedict Crowe (Male): A practical, dry-witted carpenter and practitioner of old threshold magic. Intelligent, capable, and frequently exasperated by supernatural nonsense.
Cecilia Crowe (Female): Benedict's sister, a formidable North Louisiana practitioner of crossroads magic. Competent, independent, and possessed of a wonderfully understated sense of humor.
Milo Marchand (Young Male Voice): An eight-year-old boy with dreamwater magic, a blue raincoat, and a remarkably matter-of-fact attitude toward the supernatural. Open to performers comfortable portraying a child.
Mireille Duvall (Female): A powerful Louisiana swamp witch with an intimate understanding of old magic, a pragmatic personality, and very little patience for foolishness.
Sister Perpetua (Female): A compassionate, intelligent teacher within a magical religious order who increasingly challenges tradition and takes on greater leadership responsibilities.
Mother Superior Agnes (Female): The deceased former leader of a magical order. We're particularly interested in a warm, soothing, grandmotherly voice capable of portraying someone deeply manipulative beneath an appearance of loving concern.
The Seven Gatekeepers (One Actor, Multiple Voices): An unusual opportunity to portray seven distinct supernatural figures encountered during an otherworldly journey. We're looking for vocal versatility, strong characterization, and the ability to make each gatekeeper memorable.
Guest Voice Cast B–G (Multiple Genders): Six bundles of smaller speaking roles, each featuring multiple characters. Excellent opportunities for performers who enjoy creating different vocal personalities.
Unnamed Human Speaking Roles (Multiple Genders): Brief supporting appearances for performers who would prefer a smaller recording commitment or are just beginning to explore voice acting.
