"Home Sweet Rome" centers on 13-year-old 'Lucy' (Kensington Tallman), who moves from California to start a new life in Rome with her dad and stepmom, 'Francesca' (Eleonora Facchini) – who happens to be an Italian pop star! With new friends, amazing food, haute fashion, and a best friend who is thousands of miles away, Lucy discovers what the meaning of "When in Rome" is all about as her adventures abroad get underway. As Lucy learns to adapt to her new city, new school, and new life, she's also navigating through the growing pains of being a teenager while discovering her own musical talent. A skilled vocalist, Kensington sings 11 new original songs in the series written by Grammy and BMI Award-winning songwriters Alex Geringas, whose songs have been performed by Cher, Kelly Clarkson, Snoop Dogg, Jessie J, and Dove Cameron, and Chen Neeman, who has written music for hit series "Hannah Montana", "Shake it Up", "Austin & Ally", and "Descendants". The show will premiere worldwide on HBO Max, BBC, and RAI, but hits the Canadian market first on Friday, April 7th on the Family Channel.
