NEW YORK - (April 26, 2023) - The 2023 Tribeca Festival, presented by OKX, today announced its audio storytelling lineup, including 18 world premieres from independent and established narrative audio creators and 11 Live-from-Tribeca events. This year's Festival, which takes place June 7-18, will highlight its audio storytelling selection from June 12-16, connecting creators and listeners in-person at Tribeca.
The lineup includes 11 Live-from-Tribeca events, from exclusive conversations with audio creators to live tapings of hit shows, such as an audio artists panel hosted by Avery Trufelman (Articles of Interest); a live taping of Crooked Media's Pod Save America with guest co-host Alex Wagner; a 25th anniversary rewatch event of Will & Grace followed by a live taping of SmartLess Media's Just Jack & Will featuring Sean Hayes and Eric McCormack; a live taping of Selected Shorts with New York Times Bestselling author Roxane Gay; a live taping of New York Times Audio's Modern Love with Kim Cattrall; and a live taping of Sonic Union's Perreo 101 followed by a musical performance by Cuban artists Yotuel and Beatriz Luengo.
Additionally, the 2023 Audio Storytelling program showcases 16 official selections, including eight from independent creators and eight from established creators-evenly divided between fiction and narrative nonfiction series. World premieres from independent audio creators include the fiction series The Fabulists and These Were Humans, as well as the narrative nonfiction series Abridged and Magic on a Winter's Night. World premieres from established creators include The Unmarked Graveyard: Stories from Hart Island (Radio Diaries and Radiotopia from PRX), Free from Desire (Paradiso), The Very Worst Thing That Could Possibly Happen (Wolf at the Door Studios), and Dreamtown: The Story of Adelanto (Crooked Media). Official selections will be previewed at the Emerging Audio Artists Panel hosted by a special guest and the Established Audio Artists Panel hosted by Avery Trufelman, and available the following day at https://tribecafilm.com/podcasts and @TribecaAudio.
We're honored to premiere the work of these innovative creators and to celebrate audio storytelling with the high level of recognition the medium deserves, said Davy Gardner, Curator of Audio Storytelling at Tribeca Festival. The program brings together an expansive community of listeners and creators alike with interdisciplinary programming, parties, and sound-rich live events.
This year, Tribeca Festival introduces new audio storytelling award categories, creating more opportunities for both independent and established creators, including the Independent Audio Storytelling Fiction Award, Independent Audio Storytelling Nonfiction Award, Established Audio Storytelling Fiction Award, and Established Audio Storytelling Nonfiction Award. With the expansion to four juried awards, audio storytelling submissions more than doubled.
In addition to featuring a diverse lineup of world premieres and Live-from-Tribeca events, the audio storytelling program also connects creators and listeners at this year's Festival by hosting a series of community-building events over the course of the five-day window, including the first-ever Audio Storytelling awards ceremony to celebrate official selections and winners.
