NEW YORK, NY- August 22, 2018 -Calling all TV fans, the Tribeca TV Festival is back on the big screen bringing audiences together to discover new series and be the first to see favorite new season premieres. The 2nd Tribeca TV Festival will celebrate unforgettable storytellers who have shaped what peak TV' is today and introduce new voices in episodic storytelling. Over four days at Spring Studios in New York City, each event will feature a conversation with the stars and creators of favorite and soon-to-be-favorite shows. The 2018 Tribeca TV Festival will take place September 20-23. Tickets go on sale today, August 22, at 11am ET at tribecafilm.com/TVFestival.
TV reach audiences anywhere--in their homes, on their tablets, on their phones--but it's also special to experience them on the big screen with others at the Tribeca TV Festival, said Robert De Niro.
Tribeca TV celebrates the pioneers who have broken boundaries in episodic storytelling and those who will continue to do so this fall and beyond. Programming highlights include the 20th season premiere of NBC's Law & Order: SVU withstar and executive producer Mariska Hargitay and executive producer Dick Wolf, longtime co-star Ice-T, and current cast; a look back at 10 years of dealmaking on ABC's Shark Tank'swith the Sharks; new season premieres from Emmy -nominated Tracey Ullman's Show with star and executive producer Tracey Ullman interviewed by Meryl Streep; Showtime's Emmy -nominated Ray Donovan with producer and starLiev Schreiber; CBS's Madam Secretary with star T a Leoni, Sony Crackle's Startupwith Ron Perlman, Adam Brody, and more.
The Festival will host the world premiere of the first episode of season 12 premiere of CNN's Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown with Bourdain and W. Kamau Bell in Kenya. This special presentation will be an extended cut of the final episode finished with Anthony Bourdain's full involvement, and the last to feature his narration. The screening will be followed by a conversation with Bell as well as Bourdain's closest collaborators.
Tribeca will world premiere the zany limited series Valley of the Boomfrom National Geographic which mixes scripted and unscripted storytelling to chart the rise and burst of the dot-com boom. The writers of Deadpool, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, will debut their teenage edgy comedy dramedy Wayne from YouTube Premium.
The program will include Tribeca Talks: A Conversation with Bryan Cranston and the latest installment of the Tribeca Talks: The Journey, inspired by TUMI, series with Rosario Dawson. Both conversations will
be centered on the dynamic careers and indelible characters each have brought to life throughout their careers.
The Festival has added Fall Pilot Season, a section of indie pilots, showcasing exciting new voices in episodic storytelling. An extension of pilot season from April's Tribeca Film Festival, these five comedies play with conventions of adulthood, sex and William Shakespeare. Also premiering is a section of genre stories, Midnight Episodics, that explore the dark side.
Tribeca has created a platform that lets episodic storytellers experience their stories directly with their audiences, said Jane Rosenthal, Co-Founder and Executive Chair of Tribeca. We're excited to celebrate these cultural icons and new voices with the second annual TV Festival.
Through episodic storytelling you become deeply invested in characters for years, or even decades. At Tribeca TV we are celebrating the genius of Tracey Ullman and her characters we have loved for 30 years, the 20 anniversary of Law & Order SVU and the creators and characters who have enthralled us, the 6th season of Liev Schreiber's Ray Donovan, Bryan Cranston's dynamic performances throughout his career, and finally a decade of Shark Tank and all of the careers they have launched, said Paula Weinstein, EVP of Tribeca Enterprises.
With so much incredible work being showcased on TV, the process of discovery can be the most exciting- and the most overwhelming- for audiences. Tribeca TV it here to help! We hope our guests will discover their newest TV obsession among our series premieres from Valley of the Boom to American Style, or broaden their horizons even further with world premiere indie pilots and digital series.
