Colman Domingo’s New Travel Show “You Are Here” Premieres Tonight!
Openly gay Colman Domingo’s new travel/memoir series You Are Here will premiere tonight at 7 pm EST on AMC. The award-winning actor, writer, and director takes viewers on intimate tours of the cities, places, and hidden spots that hold special meaning in his life story with four episodes dedicated to Savannah, Philadelphia, New York City, and Chicago.
Throughout the series, Domingo revisits the locations pivotal to his growth as an artist and an individual, and the web of communities, people, and found family who thrive there, and who lifted him up. He is joined by special guests including Fear the Walking Dead star Kim Dickens, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright James Ijames, five-time Tony Award-winning director Susan Stroman, and Tony Award nominee Daniel Breaker, among others, as well as friends and family, local guides, and experts in each city.
Part of AMC Networks’ Content Room Originals, the series is produced by Domingo’s Edith Productions alongside ZeroPointZero (Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown). It was created in partnership with Johnnie Walker – a brand that shares Domingo’s spirit of progress.
“It is my pleasure to partner with AMC Networks again on this personal journey that seeks to remind us all what we are made of,” said Domingo. “Sometimes we have to take a few steps backwards in order to grow into the next chapter of our lives. This four-part beginning shares some of my journey and the people who shaped me into the man I am today.”
You may be familiar with Domingo’s acting credits on HBO’s Euphoria as well as other popular AMC TV series.
“From Fear the Walking Dead to Bottomless Brunch, Colman has been a beloved member of our AMC Networks family, and with audiences around the world, for over a decade,” said Kevin Dreyfuss, head of franchise and content studio, AMC Networks. “As Content Room continues to work with our biggest franchises and fan-favorite talent, we are thrilled to continue our collaboration with Colman and Johnnie Walker on a brand-new project exploring the cultures and communities that have shaped his life.”
You can follow Domingo’s travels on You Are Here when the first two episodes drop tonight (Monday, June 19) at 7 pm EST on AMC, with the remaining two episodes airing Friday, June 30 at 7 pm EST.
The complete series will also be available on IFC, Sundance TV, and WE tv beginning Friday, June 30, and on Tuesday, August 8, the series will launch across AMCN FAST Channels and on AMC+.
