From the site of Willamette Radio Workshop:
Willamette Radio Workshop is looking for original scripts for the 2009 Halloween show … The show will be 2 one-hour programs made up of about 8 original scripts all in some way inspired by the blues/jazz classic “St. James Infirmary Blues.”
No script should be longer than 15 minutes. .. WRW is looking for pieces that are scary, suspenseful, eerie, haunting or otherwise Halloween appropriate. ER meets the X-Files meets EC Comics is how Sam sees the format. We would like first-draft scripts submitted by June 30, 2009.

I’m writing a script that attempts to combine the storyline of St James Infirmary with the Myth of Orpheus and throws in a little Robert Johnson just for good measure.
I earnestly hope I’ll get a chance to hear it produced, as well!
Best,
Fred
