feature: ‘drty diana’ – a new dark comedy web series about “today’s millennial woman”

July 21, 2015

Take a look at ‘Drty Diana’, a new dark comedy web series from co-producers Dalena Huynh and Yonas Michael. The series follows Nyaomi (Cassi Maddox), a music journalist and rocker who has moved back to her hometown after failing to hit it big in New York. The synopsis reads as followed, “one year after moving back to her hometown and taking a job in ad sales, Nyaomi has abruptly quit her nine-to-five and barricaded herself in the lies she’s spun. Her friends think she’s started a new job, her college boy-friend-with-benefits think she has it all together, and her mother is too wrapped up in becoming a Bravo reality star to see the signs. Through strange and unusual measures, Nyaomi tries to make sense of her life, her identity and the person she wants to be. Enter Diana.” The producers tell us that the series is “flipping the script with a darker take on today’s millennial woman, exploring image, sex, and living in the age of the digital lie”. Check out the first three episodes below, plus music from the series.
