(Los Angeles – June 24, 2014)    Internet radio platform Universal Broadcasting Network (www.ubnradio.com) is presenting its second live broadcast play reading this weekend on Sunday, June 29 at 3:00 PM PST on the station’s Entertain channel (Channel 1).  The work chosen for this reading is a collection of short plays by writer and producer Robert Hensley, Death, Life & a Crème-filled Center.
 
“It’s exciting to explore a new method of presentation for something created for the stage,” shares Hensley. “However, I think this is a great fit for Death, Life & a Crème-filled Center.  I wrote these plays for a black box – no sets, limited props – so the translation to an audio-only presentation should work well.”
 
Originally written for five actors to play multiple parts throughout, this reading will be performed by a larger cast for better differentiation in vocal quality for the radio. Bringing life to the characters of Death, Life & a Crème-filled Center is a talented cast including veteran character actor Veronica Alicino (Alvin & The Chipmunks, Leathal Weapon 3), Emmy award-winner Maile Flanagan (Lab Rats, Naruto), actor and stunt performer Jeff Houkal, pop singer Vano Kimmel, actor Henry Mark (Untethered), comedienne Whitney Rice, and award-winning actor Daniele Watts (Django Unchained, Weeds).  Composer Richard Johnson (www.composerjohnson.com) created an original score for the reading.
 
Previously produced as a reading at the Meta Theatre in Los Angeles, directed by Tim Hill (HOP, Muppets in Space), Death, Life & a Crème-filled Center is now available in paperback and for Kindle from Amazon.com.
