Get ready to break out of your bubble. Bravo’s new four-part event series, Welcome to Waverly, will open your eyes to new people and experiences when it premieres every night at 10/9c from Monday, October 22 through Thursday, October 25.
Welcome to Waverly will explore a major issue facing the United States today: the country’s divide among big cities vs. small towns and how to bridge that gap. How will this new series accomplish such a seemingly huge undertaking, you ask? Well, we’re taking a diverse group of seven professionals from major metropolitan areas and transporting them to the small town of Waverly, Kansas, population 563. For six weeks, they’ll live and work alongside a local counterpart in their respective industries.
Buckle up, because this experience is sure to be a bit bumpy when the incomers of all different types of backgrounds and political beliefs come together with the residents of Waverly, a town with a mayor that has held office for the past 16 years and where 99 percent of the population is white and nearly all identify as heterosexual. Along the way, there will be moments that will make you laugh, cry, and hopefully foster a better understanding of your fellow Americans.
