Webinar: The Business Hour: Narrating Intimacy in Audiobooks - Respecting Ourselves and Each Other
Monday, September 29, 2025 | 12:00pm - 1:00pm ET | Register
Join us on The Business Hour as we navigate theatrical intimacy in audiobooks. As audiobook performers, we are sometimes tasked with narrating intense content, whether it's with another actor, by ourselves, or with a full cast – and often with no director other than collaborating with co-narrator(s). This work can be thrilling and rewarding, but also frustrating and even upsetting when there are no guidelines for how to work with a partner. We'll talk about establishing best practices, and how to navigate the difficult situations that can occur in the Romance field; joining host Erin Bennett will be renowned actors Helen Laser and Mark Sanderlin. It's going to be a meaningful discussion!
