The city of Waverly, Kansas is basking in the spotlight. The small town is the subject a new reality, “Welcome to Waverly” coming to Bravo later this month.

The show follows seven professionals from big cities across the country who live and work in Waverly, population 563, for six weeks. The show will take a closer look at things like race, politics, religion and culture, and attempt to find common ground.

“We’re the same but we are different in our views and our opinions and I think in the end when you watch you’re going to see that we’re not that much different really,” said Wanda Burendeide-Chaffain.

The show pairs the seven big city people with Waverly residents who do the same job. Wanda owns Hometown Pie Company in Coffey County and was paired with a pastry chef from Charlotte, North Carolina.

“Clearly they are coming from a city so they are going to have a lot of different experiences that they can bring to me and maybe they can pick up some experiences from us,” said Kari Johnson-Brown.

Kari owns Carol’s Beauty Salon in Waverly. She was paired with both a hair stylist and a nail tech from out of town. She says she enjoyed the experience and still talks will the hair stylist about once a week.

Both Wanda and Kari say they’ve seen the trailer and are excited for everyone to see what Waverly and the rest of Coffey County has to offer.

“Welcome to Waverly” is a four night event airing every night at 9 PM October 22-25.
