Do you remember watching old films and seeing people gather around to listen to shows on the radio? TV and computers have provided a way for us to watch films, music videos, television shows and more. However, the ten-part audio drama BRONZEVILLE written by Josh Olson and historical consultant was Michael Theobald brings back the nostalgia of listening to show rather than watching it. . The following actors and actresses are apart of the series : Laurence Fishburn , Larenz Tate, Tika Sumpter, Omari Hardwick, Tracee Ellis Ross, Wood Harris, Lahmard Tate, Cory Hardict, Brittany Snow, Lance Reddick, Patrick Heusinger, Michael Raymond James, Affion Crockett, Charles Malik Whitfield, Dexter Darden, John Bishop, Alphonso McAuley , Fay Hauser, Mitch Tanner, Eric Sheffer Stevens , Arlen Escarpeta, Wren . T. Brown , Peter Mackenzie, Ella Joyce, Andra Fuller, Paul Wilson, Rodney Saulsberry, Kelley Jackley, Barry Shabaka Henley, John Lavelle, Cleo King, Robert Parks Valletta, Christopher Frontiero, Adriana Sheri, Kevin Brief, Christopher Frontiero, Adriana Sheri, Jim Meskimen , Kevin Brief, Christopher Frontiero, Adrianna Sheri, Jim Meskimen, Kevin Brief, Christopher Douglas Reed, Erica Shukrani Luttrell, Ben Bledsoe , Elizabeth June ,John Cothran Jr, Brandon Scott, Beth Maitlaind , Phillip Hersh , and Marcus T.

The men and women listed above lent their voices to be apart of a very intriguing and artistic drama. Bronzeville is a Cinema Gypsy Productions, TateMen Entertainment and Audio HQ production project. Executive producers Laurence Fishburne, Larenz Tate, Helen Sugland, LaRon Tate, Matt Cutair and Jeff McCarthy , Co-Executive Producers are JP Sarni and Lahmard Tate and produced by Kc Wayland. Once you start listening to the series you won't want to tune out. I think this is a unique digital podcast that takes the listeners on a journey through the lives of of African Americans on the Southside of Chicago in the 1940's . It chronicles black players in the lottery games while illuminating the self-sustainability of the community’s African American residents . It consist of racial tension yet shows how this particular community attained the American dream. Bronzeville immersed the listeners into a historical yet entertaining series. As Larenz Tate said " Bronzeville is theater of the mind". I as well as so many listeners are hoping for a season two or for the audio podcast to become an actual TV series or a feature film . With the amazing team that The TateMen Entertainment, Audio HQ Productions, and Cinema Gypsy Production companies, a movie or an TV show would be epic. However, this version of the audio series has created an old time feel in a modern day world. where everything is visual. This series causes you to imagine, listen closely , and visualize with your mind. For more on the Bronzeville series and to listen to the episodes get over to www.bronzevilleseries.com . Congratulations to the the writer, production team , and all of the talent that brought this audio drama series to life. You never know what's next , so make sure you stay tuned into social media as well as the Bronzeville website for updates.
The Bronzeville theme song is written by Larry T'[000099kl,kjmjnn=-0pate, Louis Price, and LaRon Tate. The lead vocal performer Louis Price has a soulful and country vibe. B;[packground Vocals – Sharenne Dopson, Alexandria Dopson, Lawrence Dopson via 1500 or Nothin productions.

Survivor's Remorse is "Bigger Than The Game". Its definitely one of the hottest shows on televisions and I'm sad to see it go after four seasons. Losing Uncle Julius ( played by Mike Epps) during the course of the show was sad but losing this half an hour comedic drama all together is shocking. Recently Starz announced the cancellation of the series. The cast which includes Jessie T. Usher, RonReaco Lee, Erica Ash, Teyonah Parris, Tichina Arnold, Robert Wu, Meagan Tandy, Catfish Jean , Isaiah Washington, Sir Brodie , Marlon Young and Chris Bauer. Executive producers Lebron James, Mike O'Malley , Tom Werner, Maverick Carter, Paul Wachter, Victor Levin , and Hilton Smith. Producers Paul Marks , cinematographer Byron Shah , and editor Jason Gourson have joined together to conduct each episode. Each individual uses their special talent to bring forth such an awesome show. Mike O'Malley created a series that was much needed in television. I love this series , I mean what's a Sunday night without Survivor's Remorse ? The show is based on Cam Calloway's (played by Jessie. T. Usher) career as a pro basketball player whom moves his family to Atlanta. Spring Hill Productions, Werner Entertainment and O'Malley Ink produced the hilarious show that you don't want to miss . This season revealed some truths, opened new doors, and closed others. So here's my five reasons why I'm going to miss Survivor's Remorse. DREAMS COME TRUE Cam landed his contract giving him the opportunity to help his family and move them into a mansion. Talk about winning ! The family didn't always have the best but now its their time to shine and they are shining and Cam's dream came true. Love to see people win right ? Yeah I'm going to miss seeing Cam's fashions and his character do all he can for his family and what he believes in. BLACK LOVE You gotta love the black love on this show. Its absolutely beautiful! They're good looking , hardworking and they support each other . Their chemistry on camera just pours out through their scenes. It's sexy , spicy, and funny. So cheers to black love of course. GIRL BOSSES The women on this show all bring something special to each scene. Each woman brings style and beauty to the screen. From hot shoes to marriage, relationships, careers, education, and family they all held it down. PAIN AND STRENGTH You are definitely in store for tons of laughs. Yet Survivor's Remorse touched on some very important issues during its run. The show included segments about money , alcoholism , sexual assault, financial issues, extortion, racism, depression, death, incarceration, sexuality , growth, self acceptance and more. The show didn't shy a way from hardships at all. We need shows that touch on hard hitting subjects that show pain and how it can be dealt with. THE LAUGHS Whether you're laughing at a joke from Uncle Julius , M Chuck, a relative mom cut from Cassie , or a informational filled sly comment from Da Chen , you will def be cracking up. Survivor's Remorse shows off stylish attire , educated women, and a family that sticks together through it all. Don't you just love that? I do. I'm honestly sad to see this show go. The special guest also made some really interesting or comedic appearances. These actors and actresses are amazing and the star light they brought to Starz is much appreciated. I hope they will be back and this end is just temporary. So huge congrats to Lebron James , the cast , and crew. So of course I'll be watching my favorite episodes on Starz .
