Add EastSiders to this queen's long list of acting roles (well maybe!) Willam Belli is the newest addition to the cast of this hilarious dark comedy, and was introduced in a YouTube video posted over the weekend (see below). The show is being funded through a Kickstarter campaign so you're going to need to throw down some coin in order to see more of Willam.
The Kickstarter will enable the producers and writers to maintain control over the portrayal of the LGBTQ characters and community they've created within the show. They've recently reached their $30,000 milestone (currently sitting at almost $33,000), but still have a long way to go before reaching their ultimate goal of $125,000.
What is EastSiders?
EastSiders is about a gay couple trying to stay together through drunken outbursts, double standards and dirty deeds! Season 1 of "EastSiders: The Series" left Cal and Thom uncertain of their future together. All the lies were out in the open and they were splitting up the Christmas ornaments, but they couldn’t deny their feelings for each other. Is being in love enough of a reason to be together?
“EastSiders” launched last year to a lot of love from fans and critics alike, with Entertainment Weekly calling the show “funny and heartbreaking” and After Elton praising it as “sharp, well-written and acted.” We won Best Web Drama at the 2013 LA Weekly Awards, Best Ensemble at the Indie Series Awards and were nominated for a Satellite Award from the International Press Academy, among numerous other accolades, but the most rewarding part has been getting to interact with the fans of the show.
