Big Age

Audible Inc., the leading creator and provider of premium audio storytelling, and Khalabo Ink Society announce Big Age, a new Audible Original comedy series. From the unmatched comedic mind of Kenya Barris, creator of the Emmy-nominated and acclaimed television series black-ish, this heartwarming and hilarious series stars comedy powerhouses Jenifer Lewis, Cedric the Entertainer, and Niecy Nash-Betts in a story that proves it’s never too late to enjoy life’s little moments.

Premiering February 5th, Big Age follows recently retired couple Dot and Butch Watts after being forced by their daughter to move into Sunset Gardens, a Floridian retirement community that is anything but relaxing. What begins as a reluctant relocation becomes an unexpected adventure filled with colorful characters, romantic entanglements, and laugh-out-loud moments that challenge everything The Watts’ thought they knew about aging. Blending outrageous comedy and touching moments of self-reflection, Big Age explores what it means to grow older without growing old at heart.

Dot, played by renowned Hollywood stalwart Jenifer Lewis (black-ish, What's Love Got to Do With It, Cars, The Princess and the Frog), is sharp tongued and sassy as she chronicles life at Sunset Gardens. Butch, Dot’s charming and kind-hearted husband is played by Cedric the Entertainer (The Barbershop trilogy, Ice Age, The Neighborhood). The flirtatious Ethel, Butch's high school sweetheart, is played by Emmy Award winner and Out100 Icon Niecy Nash-Betts (Audible's Queer West, All's Fair, Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story). The remaining featured cast includes Diarra Kilpatrick (Diarra From Detroit), Miles Brown (black-ish), and a vibrant community of Sunset Gardens residents voiced by Michael Harney (Orange is the New Black), P.J. Byrne (Rainmaker), Nana Visitor (Friday the 13th), Jim Meskimen (How The Grinch Stole Christmas), Jane Gennaro, Sophie Hayden, and Rafael Ferrer.
