How you can support Pitch!

We think it's invaluable to hear other creatives pitch their ideas. To that end, each pitch we present includes a short bio, the actual pitch, and a table read of the project's first three pages. We hire working actors to bring the table read to life.

Paying subscribers can hear the pitch below. If you're not a paying subscriber, become one now for as little $5/month. Your support means the world to us, helps pay our actors, and helps us continue developing the Pitch! Podcast.

It takes courage to put yourself and your ideas into the world at any stage of a career. We encourage constructive feedback and kudos. Check out Brook's online profiles or leave a comment below.
