Steve Silverman - Creator of "Pretty"
“Pretty,” the critically-acclaimed web series that won “Best of the Fest” at the 2010 Los Angeles Comedy Festival kicks off its second full season with the addition of a huge guest star roster, including “Knots Landing” alum, Joan Van Ark. Seen by over 100,000 people online so far, the second season of “Pretty” continues to spoof the world of children’s beauty pageants. The new episodes can be viewed at www.prettytheseries.com.
The added bonus this season is the impressive list of accomplished actors “Pretty” has lined up as guest stars, including Kirsten Vangsness (“Criminal Minds”), Melissa Peterman (“The Singing Bee,” “Reba”), Jennifer Elise Cox (“The Brady Bunch,” “Lovespring International,” "Will & Grace"), Denise Alexander (“General Hospital”), Alison Quinn (“Sons & Daughters,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm”) and a special appearance by night-time soap opera legend Joan Van Ark (“Knots Landing”).
Written and directed by renowned playwright and director Steve Silverman, who has had over 20 plays and musicals produced nationwide, including the L.A. cult phenomenon, “Slideshow,” and “15 Minutes of FEM,” “Pretty” follows the misadventures of one proud pageant dad, who simply wants to see his five year old daughter win - his five year old daughter Annette is portrayed by a grown woman, actress Stacy McQueen. The second season kicks off where the first left viewers, waiting to hear if Annette won the pageant.
"We’re thrilled to premiere the continuing story of America’s favorite pageant family, the Champagnes,’” says Silverman. "We are even more excited to introduce some of the family’s new friends – and enemies - played by our fantastic guest cast."
“Pretty” received rave reviews for its first season mockumentary-style skewering of children’s beauty pageant shows like “Toddlers & Tiaras.” As a series, it’s won multiple festivals, taking home both the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Favorite at Shorts ‘N Spirits and winning “Best of the Fest” at the Los Angeles Comedy Festival.
