Kerr Consulting • Jan 10, 2020
Nō Studios is excited to announce that our founder, John Ridley, has signed on to write, direct and executive produce a musical drama for Showtime Networks. Originally set in a modern-day Detroit, Ridley reshaped the series to be set in Milwaukee.

“I couldn’t be more excited to work not only again with Gary and Showtime, but to also collaborate with the phenomenal talents of Alicia Keys, the team of Pasek and Paul (La La Land), Marc Platt (La La Land), and R.J Cutler, and Adam Siegel as well,” said Ridley. “I’m especially grateful for the opportunity to set the series in Milwaukee, and examine the challenges and triumphs of my hometown; a city to which I remain deeply connected.”
