Maybe if it were more of a romantic comedy-type romance it would work out well. As long as we are entertained by it and it is not too sappy, I think it could work.
I don't see where that would be a legal matter - maybe they were mad at the insensitivity? Anyway, the radioplay was probably already scheduled way in advance - how were they to know?
I read recently about how BBC Radio 4 were in trouble for airing a radio play which had gunshots in it the day after a major shooting tragedy. It made me wonder if this issue ever arises with amateur productions.
I can't see that contracts would matter much anyhow as it strikes me that people do this for the love of it. If there was some reason any cast member had to quit would other people want to pursue them in court?
It would help if you specified what line you are talking about? I agree that it is not at all inappropriate but I would really like to know what you think pushing the line is.
I would be interested in hearing about successful careers that started from radioplay - can you name a few that we might know? Or has anyone ever really made it that big?
I like the music, I like the narrator's voice, but... I think there should be a different character to play Little Gou. The narrator should stick to narrating. Gou would be better done with an oriental voice.
I realize that most of these radioplays are done by amateurs, but what if one becomes very popular and someone, say the narrator, decided they can't do it anymore and quits. Does anyone sign contracts beforehand? I can imagine that it would make a huge difference to the show, because their voice may be the reason that people are listening.
