BIG GIRL Web Series To Premiere On Streaming Platform Seeka TV  Image

Big Girl, from creator and star Katharine Scarborough, and producers Elaine White and Alyssa Cartee (collectively Brazen NYC), is set to premiere on March 29th, 2021 on streaming platform Seeka TV. Big Girl stars Scarborough as Katie, a fearless, plus-size woman who strives to succeed in our size-obsessed culture. She unapologetically lives her life to the fullest, despite toxic friends, bad dates, and a fatphobic society. She won't be sidelined as a funny sidekick or a punchline, because it's time for a different leading lady.

In five comedic, short episodes, each emulating a different film genre, we follow Katie as she makes her enemies get the hell out of her way, and she triumphs outrageously. Big Girl was the winner of Best Sketch Comedy, Best Director, Best Ensemble Cast, Best Script, and Best Episode at the British Web Awards, Best Director and Best Series at Two Roads International Film Festival, and Best Actress at Last Shot Film Festival. Big Girl received nominations for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress at the British Web Awards, and Best Writing, Best Actress, and Best Featured Performer at Two Roads International Film Festival, and is an Official Selection of the Miami Web Fest, The New York Lift-Off Film Festival, and the New Jersey Web Fest.
