KWABENA IS an aspiring filmmaker trapped in his recruitment job. When an old friend fixes him an opportunity, he must decide between going all in or giving up his dream entirely.
The Voice Newspaper caught up with Dreaming Whilst Black Director Sebastian Thiel and co-creator, co-writer and executive producer Adjani Salmon to talk about the series and their excitement on how it will be recieved.
Salmon said: “After such a phenomenal response to the web series, where we found an audience who really connected to Kwabena’s journey, I’m happy we’ve made our show for TV. I’m excited to share this story with our earliest and new audiences alike.”

Dreaming Whilst Black (2021)
As BBC Three prepares to move back to television (where it belongs) in January 2022, the latest series of Comedy Slice showcase pilots have begun popping up in the hope of finding the next big thing. Well, it seems that they may just have found it, with Adjani Salmon s brand new pilot -
Dreaming Whilst Black.
The driving force of the pilot is two-fold: firstly it s about the struggles of Kwabena, a young black guy with big dreams of making it in a very elite industry: he wants to be a filmmaker, he has a script all worked out and he can see himself as a star, but as he frustratedly explains to his old friend, Amy (Dani Moseley) who herself is now working in the media as an executive assistant (which she confides still amounts to being a glorified tea lady):
