STARZ GOES DEEP IN THE VALLEY WITH NEW DOCU-SERIES "DOWN IN THE VALLEY" HOSTED AND EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY NAACP AWARD WINNER NICCO ANNAN AND EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY "P-VALLEY" CREATOR KATORI HALL

Six-Part Documentary Series Explores The Deep South

Santa Monica, Calif. - March 8, 2024 - STARZ announced today it has greenlit "Down in the Valley," a documentary series inspired by the vibrant world of "P-Valley," set to air in 2024. The six-half-hour episode series hosted and executive produced by Nicco Annan ("P-Valley") will take viewers on a tantalizing tour of the Deep South, unveiling a complex South that is equal parts poignant, joyful, and magical.

Annan, best known as "Uncle Clifford" on STARZ's critically acclaimed drama series "P-Valley," will be immersed in the people, sensuality, music, culture, and stories of the South. From strip clubs to sex workshops, rap performances, and ancient hoodoo rituals, Annan, as well as the audience, will experience it all.

"Down in the Valley" will pull back the curtain on the surprising but always intriguing people and places that make the Deep South a place where anything can happen and usually does.

"I can't wait for ya'll to get a taste of this fiercely unpredictable, deep-dive dance into Southern culture. It's a black mirror of sorts," said Annan. "Going through the experience of watching 'Down in the Valley,' the audience will immerse and connect with culture beyond the narrow lens of their everyday neighborhoods, and see through a mirrored reflection the forgotten Black American South like never before. Down In The Valley... it is what it is!!!"

'P-Valley' has authentically captured Southern Black culture in our fictional world of Chuccalisa and piqued the curiosity of our Pynk Posse to learn more," said Kathryn Busby, President of Original Programming for STARZ. 'Down in the Valley' is a natural companion to our hit scripted series and we're thrilled to be working again with Nicco as he invites audiences for a cultural exchange and understanding of the real South. Viewers will be captivated by the parallels drawn between the real-life experiences of Southern communities and the compelling narratives Katori shares in 'P-Valley.'"

"Down in the Valley" is produced by Zero Point Zero for STARZ. In addition to Annan, Pulitzer Prize winner and "P-Valley" creator Katori Hall ("The Hot Wing King," Oliver Award-winning "The Mountaintop" and Broadway's "Tina: The Tina Turner Musical") will also serve as executive producer. Emmy and Peabody award winning executive producer Shoshana Guy served as showrunner. Lydia Tenaglia and Chris Collins will serve as executive producers and Jared Andrukanis as co-executive producer on behalf of Zero Point Zero.Alice Dickens Koblin, Senior Vice President of Unscripted Programming and Karen Bailey, Executive Vice President of Programming, will oversee the series on behalf of STARZ.
