“Men and Love can sometimes be like two ships passing in the night. We all need love. I would submit that we all want love. But we also all get the opportunity to defines what love means to each of us.”
- Why should people see your show?
If you want an to experience a cool ride, this could be your ticket. You’ll get multiple perspectives and won’t want to leave.
- What about festivals intrigues you? And why the Atlanta Fringe?
Festivals intrigue me because I guess a chance to see creatives work. New refreshing approaches to entertainment. Why Atlanta Fringe? Well, I always have a blast. I always learn something new. And I’m always challenged to take risks and think outside of the box.
- What inspired you to create this?
Men and Love can sometimes be like two ships passing in the night. We all need love. I would submit that we all want love. But we also all get the opportunity to defines what love means to each of us. This piece allows us to explore it together.
- Life has been weird the last few years, to say the least. How has the “real world” affected the art you’re creating?
Sometimes things can get too real. The “real world” has awakened a “cause” to “pause” at times for me. We’re known to create “reality” pieces. Real-life engaging pieces. Sometimes people don’t want that. That’s too close to their real life. Sometimes people want the weird and silly. It allows them to escape their reality. I’m all for that. I can dig it!
- What have you learned from working on your show so far?
That there are alot of things that have taken place over the last few years that have people asking “What was He thinking”? “What were they thinking?”
- There’s a mysterious stranger in the back row of your show, wearing a big ol’ N95 mask and a baseball cap and there’s something weirdly familiar about them, and then they come up afterwards to tell you they loved your show. In your WILDEST DREAMS, who is this mysterious stranger? (Bonus points if your mysterious stranger is an Atlanta celeb.)
For me, it’s Tyler Perry OR LUDADRIS OR 2 CHAINZ OR The Rock. Guess I have alot of wild dreams.
[Above: We’ve gotten Tyler Perry a lot, we’ve gotten a few shouts to Luda, but this is our first ever 2 Chainz and we’re excited about it.]
- Fringes are the place to really push the boundaries so we gotta ask: are you inviting your family to this show are “Hey, maybe sit this one out you guys…”
I’m definitely inviting ERRRRRBODY!!!!
- Will your show change the world?
It could in some strange ways. Maybe help us have more creative and meaningful dialogue.
- Zoom meetings: dress up head to toe or Donald Duck it?
Definitely Donald Duckin it.
- We’re making an excellent Fringey Feelings playlist. Describe your show in two or three songs we can add to keep the jams flowing.
