About the Sitcom

Hangin’ with Fidel is an original web-based sitcom. The premise is simple:Two guys share an apartment with Fidel Castro. This is a sitcom in the classic style: a catchy theme song, laugh track, hilarious situations, physical comedy, catch phrases, weekly moral lessons, and even “a very special episode.”

HWF was the last writing project of our good friend Brock H. Brown. Before he passed away in December 2009, Brock had completed the screenplays for 8 10-minute episodes. He was looking forward to directing and co-starring in the show.

The Creative Team

Brock H. Brown - Screenwriter - Brock H. Brown was a talented screenwriter and director and a great friend. He wrote five feature screenplays and countless short film screenplays. He won many awards for his writing and directing, and was Featured Director on IFC’s MediaLab Shorts Uploaded in October 2006. His star was also rising in Hollywood, where he was very near to selling a screenplay when he passed away in December 2009 at the age of 26.

Bruce Dellis - Musical Director - Bruce Dellis is an award-winning writer and director of films of all genres and styles, but always heavy on the absurdity. That he’s teaching a class called “Writing for Weirdos” says a whole lot. He’s also written a number of bizarre musicals, which is why we’re excited to have him as our Musical Director, responsible for our super-catchy theme song.

Joshua J. Provost - Director -  Joshua J. Provost is a director and cinematographer who exacts control over every factor that influences the image, from location and production design, through lighting and composition, and on to color timing and editing. He harnesses these influences to create images that seamlessly accent the tone and emotion of the story. Understated and radiant, or striking and visceral, he has succeeded in a variety of styles.  Josh has received awards for cinematography, editing, directing, writing, acting, and as a producer.
