The narrative interweaves humor with drama and is to unfold against the backdrop of an extremely modest community knit together by tradition. Baig will work together with author and comedian Daliso Chaponda towards completing the show’s pilot within the framework of Forecast.
Chaponda said: “I have chosen to keep working with Hamza Baig because his project The Marblous Four captivates me—it’s so ambitious and unique. I also think his piece will benefit from a mentorship because he is able to accept criticism in a way that a lot of artists (including me!) struggle with. Each draft of his script was a step forward and he showed a singular talent in getting charming performances from non-actors. We also have a similar ethos of art; both of us want to share elements of our culture while entertaining. I think collaborating will enrich us both.”
