Announcement: Acton Native To Star In A Comedic Webisode Series

Acton, Ma native and ABHS graduate Amy Halloran caught the acting bug at the tender age of 10 when she first performed in Concord Youth Theatre’s production of Tom Sawyer. Although she only had two words in the show, she was hooked and spent the next several years acting in CYT productions.

At 17, Amy moved to New York city to study Musical Theater and later moved to Hollywood. She has guest starred in several television shows as well as TV movies for Hallmark and Disney. Between acting roles, she started a dog walking business, which became inspiration for a web series she is currently producing and starring in.

Hollywood is a place where dreams are made, stars are born and dog walkers are in high demand. Every dog has a dog walker and every dog walker has a dream. So goes the story of the new scripted web series, UnLEASHED, starring Amy Halloran and Jennifer Hall, and written/directed by Doug Bass. The show follows the owner of LEASH Pet Care, Heather Posen as she wrangles her employees and deals with crazy clients. In UnLEASHED, there’s no business like dog business.

"What we want to capture is the absurdity of the dog walking business in Los Angeles and without too much consideration, most people in LA with the means are willing to hand over the keys to their homes and thousands of dollars to unemployed actors, felons, and weirdos for the sake of maintaining a schedule of bottle-feeding, or medication dosing, or whatever, for their precious pets" said UnLEASHED writer/director Doug Bass.

The seven webisode series premiers August 1st.
