The series offers an alternative for audiences who are tired of watching the struggling-millennial-New-York-ensemble trope omit people of color. In place of a traditional script, the series is built on a soft-structured outline with improvised dialogue as a way to reflect the raw impulsivity, grit, and chaos inherent to this contemporary, American experience.

The 8-episode main season of ""Anthology"" was released in September 2021 on BlackOak TV. You can learn more via our press kit for Anthology: https://www.sixlivesonestory.com/press-kit. The series features an incredible soundtrack, including music from Jamie Woods, a 2x Grammy Award winning vocalist (Chance The Rapper). Music from the series can be found on our Spotify playlist (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1k2qUBE35HVYJN0shWCH4n?si=f0eb79987d734644). The series also received a lovely write-up from Starry Mag: https://starrymag.com/web-series-wednesday-anthology/.

Anthology is a drama. And a comedy. It’s a love story. It’s about fboys and addiction. And grief. It’s about broken friendships, familial ties, and following your dreams. It’s about the constant pursuit of trying to better oneself amidst the compounding struggles of daily life. The ""big city"" and the pursuit of success wears on your soul. Life beats you down. All you can do is keep getting back up. These characters, however flawed, keep on trying. And we love them for it. #SixLivesOneStory
