Sonar Teams with Felipe Esparza on Comedy/Travel Show

Sonar Entertainment is collaborating with comedian/actor Felipe Esparza to develop the new series Crossing Over: Bad Decisions Along the Border with Felipe Esparza.

Crossing Over: Bad Decisions Along the Border with Felipe Esparza will look on as the titular personality leads a band of comics on a tour of the U.S./Mexico border. The multi-part series will feature an immigrant perspective while “blowing up stereotypes and breaking down political walls” with humor.

“Felipe Esparza is one of the brightest stars in all of comedy,” said Andrea Gorfolova, the president of kids, family and factual at Sonar Entertainment. “His singular perspective—sometimes raw and always spot-on—combined with his unmatched comic instincts make him the ideal talent to take us on this unforgettable tour.”

“I’m excited to be working on this project because it explores something very close to my heart,” added Esparza. “I’m an immigrant, too, and I see myself in a lot of these people and their families. This show will focus on the human stories on all sides of this border wall issue, and I hope to also bring some humor and light to this topic wherever possible.”
