The Third Coast version of “Oscar-nominated shorts” —but in sound! (There will be no pictures… other than the ones in your head.)

On October 7th at Logan Theatre, The Fest Presents: Standout Shorts, a selection of phenomenal short audio documentaries. The featured artists in this year's lineup are: Arlie Adlington, Nanna Hauge Kristensen, Sayre M. Quevedo, Stephanie Rowden & Jonathan Zenti. Hosted by Gwen Macsai of Re:sound, and producer Sharon Mashihi of The Heart.

Every year, radio and podcast producers enter their best stories of the year into the Third Coast/Richard H. Driehaus Foundation Competition, sometimes known as the “Oscars of Radio.” Standout Shorts is a screening of our very favorite short works from around the world, followed by the chance to meet many of the talented producers behind these amazing works.
