Get pumped for a special BANFF edition of HOT PILOT PARTY! One HOT, unproduced Canadian half-hour comedy pilot will be chosen for a special live table read at the festival featuring top tier talent.
Come for the art, stay for the party! Let’s get a little rock n' roll in the Rockies. Join us for some good ol’ fashioned community and entertainment!
Following a nationwide call for entry, we’re looking for the top 5 unproduced comedy pilots in Canada. A single script will be chosen for the live table read at BANFF, and 4 additional scripts will have the opportunity to be featured at the festival and receive international trade press, plus a complimentary pass to the Banff World Media Festival.
About HPP: Created by writer/actors Nadine Bhabha and Julian De Zotti and casting director, Hannah Antaki, HOT PILOT PARTY began in 2024 as a way to gather the Toronto Film and TV community and celebrate some Canadian talent! They assembled Toronto’s finest to read two unproduced comedy pilot scripts in front of a live audience, and amassed over 200 artists and community-members to listen, laugh, and libate. The inaugural event took place at the Theatre Centre in Toronto, with an all-star cast that included Eric McCormack, Jess Salgueiro, Amanda Brugel, Ennis Esmer and so many more!
