HBO<\/a> has renewed the Emmy-nominated unscripted series\u00a0We’re Here<\/em> for a third season, it was announced today by Nina Rosenstein, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Part of the magic of We’re Here<\/em> is that even though it takes place in small towns, the series has had an incredibly inspiring ripple effect that goes way beyond those communities,” said\u00a0Rosenstein. “We’re looking forward to another season where we can continue to inspire and showcase some fierce drag!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The series follows renowned drag queens Bob the Drag Queen<\/a>, Eureka O’Hara and Shangela as they continue their journey spreading love and connection across small-town America, through the art of drag.\u00a0 In season two, the queens recruited local residents from Spartanburg, SC, Temecula, CA, Del Rio, TX, Selma, AL, Evansville, IN, Watertown, SD, Kona, HI, and Grand Junction, CO to participate in one-night-only drag shows, they inspire their “drag daughters” to express their genuine selves in front of their families, friends and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are thrilled to be a part of HBO’s continued commitment to LGBTQ+ storytelling,” said\u00a0co-creators and executive producers Stephen Warren and Johnnie Ingram. “We are honored to continue to fight for equality and celebrate the many unsung heroes and allies across the country.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Season two of We’re Here<\/em> was created and executive produced by Stephen Warren and Johnnie Ingram; directed and executive produced by Peter LoGreco; executive produced by Eli Holzman & Aaron Saidman and Erin Gamble for Industrial Media’s The Intellectual Property Corporation (IPC); series producers Caldwell Tidicue (Bob the Drag Queen), David Huggard (Eureka O’Hara) and D.J.
