The audition reader app that never flakes
Every audition needs a reader, and readers are hard to find at 11pm the night before. Actor Reader is an audition reader app built for working actors. Paste your sides, pick a voice, and run lines anytime, anywhere.
Why actors use an audition reader app
- Run lines for auditions with consistent pacing, day or night.
- Practice cold reads and build speed without rushing.
- Rehearse character turns and listening moments against a steady cue.
- Dial in timing for comedy, drama, and commercial copy.
- Test different reads against 40+ distinct voices.
The fastest way to improve your auditions is reps. Reps build listening, reps build timing, reps build confidence. An audition reader that is always available makes those reps easy.
From sides to rehearsal in under 30 seconds
There is no setup and nothing to install. Paste your script into the browser, choose a reader from the voice library, set your cues, and hit play.
It runs on your phone, tablet, or laptop, so you can rehearse at home, in the car, or on the bench outside the casting office. The reader you used last night is the same reader you get this morning.
What a good reader actually does
A good reader gives you the cue and then gets out of the way. They do not perform at you, they do not rush the beat before your turn, and they do not change the rhythm on the take where you finally had it.
That consistency is the whole point. When the other voice is fixed, every difference between take four and take nine is a choice you made, which is what makes the reps worth doing.
Common questions
What is an audition reader?
An audition reader is the person who reads the other roles while you play yours. In the casting office it is usually an assistant. At home it is whoever you can talk into it. Actor Reader is that reader as a tool, available whenever you need to work.
Is Actor Reader a good audition reader?
It gives you the one thing a human reader usually cannot: the same cue at the same pace, every take, at any hour. Paste your sides, pick a voice, and run the scene as many times as you want.
