TRASHO STUDIO is a production studio based in NYC that tells stories from the fringe.
Whether we're shooting on MiniDV or an Alexa we rented on our PA's parents' credit card, every Trasho show is guaranteed to look different from the rest of the slop.
Our fingerprints are on every frame.
For better or worse.
IAN-HELP is Trasho's first co-production with Underscore Talent.
It's a shortform call-in show with comedian Ian Fidance—Brooklyn's bisexual softboy trapped in a middle-aged punk's body.
Each episode, Ian sits in his basement and takes calls from broken dudes to help them be a little better.
He's Frasier for the 2026 fuckboy, with a little bit of Chris Gethard's Beautiful/Anonymous mixed in.
GOOD CULT is a solo show written and performed by River Donaghey and based on his investigative podcast of the same name.
River grew up in a cult. Well, some people called it a cult. His parents called it a "personal growth seminar community." The woman who ran it called it "one big happy family."
The 55-minute play takes audiences through the entire five-day seminar that changed River's parents' lives and ended others'.
Premiering September 2026 at Studio 17 in Manhattan.
Directed by Brittany Reeber. Produced by Roger Mancusi.
MAN ON STREET is a scripted series that turns on-the-street interviews into the nightmare fuel they already almost are.
It's Inland Empire for Instagram.
HOST: What's lowkey we all need to normalize?
GUEST: The thing people don't realize is that the amount of it stays the same.
HOST: It does or it doesn't?
GUEST: (cavernous, echoing SFX) Yes.
1-800-VOYEURS is a scripted series capturing the private scenes of New Yorkers framed in their apartment windows.
The episodes are staged, but shot to look authentic—shaky iPhones, shot from one window to another or from the sidewalk, staring up. Each one is presented as a user submission, narrated by a voice note from the "voyeur" who supposedly shot it.
It's a little How To, a little Planet Earth meets Rear Window. Or maybe if Herzog narrated Koyaanisqatsi? In any case, it's going to make a lot of commentors mad before they realize it's not real.
Let's make some trash shows.
Trash is all there is.
