Fans of writer-director Jason Katims — and his dramas “Friday Night Lights” and “Parenthood” — will want to circle March 13 on their calendars.<\/p>\n

Katims’ new series “Rise” debuts that night at 10-11PM ET. It will move to the 9PM hour in subsequent weeks.<\/p>\n

“When dedicated teacher and family man Lou Mazzuchelli (Josh Radnor) sheds his own self-doubt and takes over the school\u2019s lackluster theater department, he galvanizes not only the faculty and students but the entire working-class town,” says NBC’s regarding the “heartening” new drama.<\/p>\n

It is based on a true story.<\/p>\n

In addition to Radnor, the cast features Marley Shelton, Rarmian Newton, Auli\u2019i Cravalho, Damon J. Gillespie, Ted Sutherland, Amy Forsyth, Casey Johnson, Taylor Richardson, Joseph Tippett, Shirley Rumierk and Rosie Perez.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the March premiere, NBC shared production photos from the pilot episode. Those follow:<\/p>\n
