TYING KNOTS: REAL TALK
from MADD HATTA SHOW PODCAST Hosted by Madd Hatta
During his interview with award-winning filmmaker, author, and playwright Holly Charles-Pearson, Madd Hatta dives into her latest project, Tying Knots, a witty and heartfelt romantic-comedy mockumentary that explores the hilarious realities of married life after the honeymoon phase. Written and directed by Charles-Pearson, the film follows bliss-blind newlyweds Eric and Sheila as they return home to discover that love, compromise, and everyday conflict are all part of the tug-of-war of “tying the knot,” blending sharp humor, pop culture, and social commentary. Holly also opens up about her creative journey as a literary activist, her work as a University of Houston educator, founder of Houston Play On Purpose theater company, and her evolution from stage to screen, including her NAACP Image Award-nominated film If They Took Us Back. The conversation highlights her passion for telling culturally authentic stories, the inspiration behind Tying Knots, and her mission to create meaningful, entertaining content that reflects the lived experiences of communities of color.
