Our History

CK Productions Inc. was conceptualized in December of 2013. Shortly after, CK Productions Inc. found itself running a community theatre filled with performers of all ages in the heart of Long Island, New York. 

After hundreds of performances, CK Productions developed its branches (CK Theatricals & CK Films) to create more engaging work outside of a community theatre realm. Since the start of both branches in 2015, CK Theatricals & CK Films have received awards and nominations from BroadwayWorld, Queens World Film Festival, Best of Long Island and more. CK Films has done exceptionally well receiving honorable mention and appearing in over 30 festivals throughout the world. While the Theatricals division has developed workshops of productions as well as Off-Broadway & Off-Off Broadway runs.

In January 2019, CK Productions Inc. introduced CK Records, a music & podcast label & management company. Our music division is currently managing several artists, have two artists signed to our label and is producing four new podcasts. In June of 2019, CK Productions added its final branch, CK Marketing, a full-fledged music marketing, business marketing & PR company.

In addition, CK is also creating new, engaging works and have two New York City theatrical workshops planned in 2020. We also have a short film & series in post production and season 2 of our Documentary Series (Conversations) streaming for free on YouTube in 2020.

James Gansley 
"papaGansley"

CK Records

is a New Jersey creative. The name papaGansley derives from his various YouTube and social media usernames where he built himself a loyal following from his podcast, "nerd culture" content and video game live streaming. Quickly, Gansley became interested in various forms of the entertainment industry. Working with a NYC-based Hip-Hop record labels is how he was able to create a name for himself within the New York music industry. When he and partner Ethan Felizzari met (through a mutual project for CK Records managed artist, Bknott) they automatically knew working together was a must. Immediately papaGansley learned the ropes to become a producer for theatre, film and more.
