The Haven Webseries created by Mia McCullough, directed and produced by Elizabeth Laidlaw and Mia McCullough

The Haven is new Chicago web series created by Mia McCullough, directed and produced by Elizabeth Laidlaw and Mia McCullough.
A tragicomedy set in a domestic violence shelter, telling stories of women of all races, religions, socio-economic backgrounds, and sexual orientations.
​
Premise:
The under-paid staff of a domestic violence shelter grapples with the messiness of their personal lives while trying to help their clients embark on abuse-free futures. 
Why:
A television show has never been set in a domestic violence shelter before, and it's a beautiful vehicle for conflict -- both comic and tragic. We are employing mostly women and many people of color both in front of and behind the camera, and we want to represent the experiences of people the American public does not typically get to know.
