Narrated by Alana Thompson, I Was Honey Boo Boo offers a glimpse into what happened behind the scenes from her perspective and reveals how her on-screen confidence concealed the harsh reality of constant criticism and family struggles, particularly with her mother, Mama June.
Vale Cooper (Happy Face) plays the “Young Alana” and Isabelle Ayres stars as Alana, when she is older. Mia Turley stars as the “Young Pumpkin,” while Georgia Small (A Christmas Number One) plays older Pumpkin, Neil Chinneck stars as Sugar Bear, and Mama June is played by Chelsea Larkin (The Second City). Katie Boland directs from a script written by Emily Silver.
