UPCOMING TV SHOW “BLACK POETRYâ€
Two Orange County and New York film production companies, C. Lee Productions LLC of Middletown and Willy-Gilly Productions Inc. of Goshen, have worked together to produce the pilot for an upcoming TV show titled “Black Poetry.” Written by local author Stewart Thomas of Middletown, the show highlights the struggles and difficult choices of a black family as they work all angles to bring some accountability, dignity and purpose to their lives in their small urban environment.
The show stars Tray Chaney and co-stars Misha G, a new local talent trained by The Academy of Film, Television, Stage and Performing Arts in Goshen. Other Academy grads cast in prominent roles include Chandler Mac of C. Lee Productions, David Mosca and Fabienne Justin.
