Created by Casallina “Cathy” Kisakye (The Chi, Homecoming), the half-hour anthology series tells stories “about connection and rejection that explore our most harrowing — and harrowingly comic — sexual secrets.”
Waithe said: “Cathy’s script is haunting, funny, and extremely vulnerable — it’s the kind of script that doesn’t come around very often. I’m honored that Cathy trusts me with such a special project. I can’t wait for the world to see it.”
“With How to Make Love, I’m thrilled to tell stories about the women I know, who are complicated, passionate, resilient and relatable. Thank you to Lena and the entire team at Showtime for believing in this project,” added Kisakye, whose work focuses on racial identity and sexual politics.
