Introducing The Gilded Age
Peggy Scott: Denée Benton
Costume Designer: Kasia Walicka-Maimone
Pitched as a prequel series to his massively successful Downton Abbey, Julian Fellows soon took his idea and made it it’s own stand-alone period drama. Set in New York City during the 1880s “The Gilded Age” premiered on HBO, January 24, 2022.
It has an ensemble cast featuring stars from Broadway. While many of the storylines focus on the New York’s super elite in-crowd— “The 400”— made up of old money and the new people trying to push in, not every character’s narrative center on the frivolity of high society.
