About the show:
Cecilia has made it! After hustling for years as a struggling actor, Cecilia has finally secured a lead role on a Netflix show, a high level of notoriety as a stand-up comic, and a stable life in Los Angeles. But even up-and-coming stars like herself are susceptible to the hauntings of the past. On a trip to her home state of Pennsylvania, Cecilia is forced to confront her wounded relationship with her parents and address the traumas she has been ignoring for years. Will the modern-day starlet be up for the challenge? (Content Warning: Discussion of Eating Disorders and Suicide)
The cast will feature Natalie Ruthven, Ian Potter, and Jody Gnant. The creative team includes Lily Boulard and Tommy Page.
