On Pen15, Maya and Anna play middle school aged versions of themselves. They’re best friends. Maya has a bowl cut. Anna has braces. They’re starting 7th grade at the beginning of the show and while 6th grade wasn’t great, they have a pretty good feeling that this year is gonna be different.
Maya and Anna tell us how they mined stories from their own lives to make the show. And why they cast Richard Karn – yes, Al from Home Improvement – as Maya’s dad.
Pen15 is now streaming on Hulu
