Prides General is a Gay Soap Drama on You Tube, we are currently starting our second season, and are looking for replacement characters along with new characters, the series is centered around a hospital and the characters who work in the hospital, we have also branched off into a nightclub (Rainbow Bar Cocktails and More) which of course happens to be the local hang out for the hospital’s staff, along with The Agency. The Agency is are a ruthless bunch of people who use the hospital for their own gain. The series will have a fresh new look next season, and we are looking for talent all over the globe. The great thing about Prides General, the filming is done from your own home, I send you the line and directions, you get into character and do your part, and send me the footage and its edited and uploaded.
