STRANDED (Audible/Broadway video)

Wow, worked on this May/June 2022 and now it’s finally going to be released. I’m so happy for my showrunners #DaveLee and #ChrisBruno, along with co-EP #ShurkiAbdi. To have @traceeellisross @tarajiphenson to be attached as our leads, talk about #blackgirlmagic. Love this. Happy to help with another banger for #broadwayvideo @audible. I’m mainly a drama writer so working in the comedy space and been really refreshing and helpful to stretch a new muscle. I’m excited and ecstatic for audiences to hear the final product.

Hollywood Reporter:

Stranded, created and directed by Chris Bruno and David Howard Lee and written with Shukri R. Abdi, follows longtime best friends Janet (voiced by Ross) and Serena (voiced by Henson) as they plan a girls trip to relax and reconnect. The trip goes awry as their party boat crashes and leaves the two as the lone survivors on a Caribbean cay. The podcast launches Nov. 7.

The cast includes Lamorne Morris, Jay Ellis, Tim Robinson, Taye Diggs, Whoopi Goldberg, Larry Wilmore, Keith David, Ashley Nicole Black, Mikey Day, Zazie Beetz, Nicole Byer, Phylicia Rashad, Phil LaMarr and more.

“Joining forces with Tracee Ellis Ross and our hilarious ensemble cast on Stranded has been a dream. I’m excited to share this laugh-out-loud, sidesplitting story with Audible listeners everywhere,” Henson said. “
