Condemned will focus on the public hangings that took place in Woodstock between 1862 and 1954.
WOODSTOCK - Camera crews will be coming to Woodstock to film a show about the Friendly City's dark history.
Farah Foster-Manning is known for being a local actress and triathlete. She's producing a new show called Condemned.
"It's actually a gripping true crime series that I'm bringing here. It's the notorious public hangings that occurred here between 1862 and 1954."
Foster-Manning was the one to pitch the show to Bell, and she learned a lot about her hometown while doing her research.
"Being local, I didn't know that all of this happened here until I researched and wow! What we found and what we are going to present will be very accurate."
The show will showcase historical accuracy with dramatic re-enactments. Camera crews will be in the city to shoot five episodes from Monday April 7th to Friday April 11th. The courtroom scenes will be filmed on the first floor of the Woodstock Museum, but the other scenes will be filmed at Early Bird Coffee, a local Victorian home, and a local swamp.
Foster-Manning says they're still looking for background talent for the show, and she would love to see some familiar faces on screen. Those who are interested can visit the Condemned Woodstock Facebook page for more details.
Condemned will make its debut later this year and Foster-Manning is planning to host a local launch event for the big day.
Farah Foster-Manning called the Heart FM studio for a chat with Dan and Marcie on Monday March 10th. You can listen to the full interview below:
