Actor Auburn Chandler previews comedy-drama role and stage projects
Summary
Auburn Chandler, an actor and producer from Pittsboro, N.C., talked about a film role (an older man named Moses) in a comedy with a moral arc, several ongoing stage plays, and the upcoming pilot and release timeline for his screen work.
Auburn Chandler, an actor and producer who said he lives in Atlanta and grew up in Pittsboro, North Carolina, told Open host Dr. V Lee that acting came as a late but welcome turn in a two-decade entertainment career. Chandler described a current film project in which he plays an older man named Moses and two preachers who "start out hustling" and later experience a moral transformation. "It has a really good meaning, but it's a comedy," he said, adding the project is expected to come out later in the year.
Chandler also said he is involved in multiple stage productions. He described one play, Angel's Palace, as a powerful production addressing sex trafficking; he said the playwright Carolyn Jones drew on a family member's experience to raise awareness. Chandler said he is working on three live stage plays simultaneously and is active as a producer, director and promoter.
He thanked collaborators and supporters, gave social handles (Instagram: BC the Boss; Facebook: Auburn Chandler) and encouraged listeners to follow upcoming performances and screenings. Chandler said distribution details for the film and pilot are still being finalized.
The segment provided a mix of promotion and artistic context: Chandler framed his work as both entertainment and an effort to spotlight community issues through narrative theater and film.
