BLACK RETAIL
About the Show
Black Retail is a half-hour comedy following the lives and friendships of three black millennial women Brandy, Tiana and Ashley . Each initially intended to use their retail jobs to jump start their dreams and pay their bills in the process. When complacency settles in they find themselves stuck in more places than just work. When everything from anal retail culture, micro-aggressions exes and family drama gets to an all time high they struggle to identify when they're clocking in for work and out of reality.

Our visual supervisor, perfectly curated and complacent. However no amount of arranging can hide the mounting pressure under the surface.
Usually floating aloof on a cloud in
her delusions, when she lands she is
usually found holding the door of opportunity open for someone else.
Often seen with tired eyes ,working the floor isn't an easy especially when no one sees you doing it...
