This weekend Ezzy and I produced her one-woman show “Once Upon A Caterpillar,” which she performed at New Season Christian Center in the Bronx. The audience was extremely receptive to her characters and her jokes. She did an amazing job. It was a fun night all around.

Before the “Caterpillar” show began, we gave the audience a short performance from another play being worked on called “The P Tape Chronicles”. This 10 minute scene about life and relationships was written by me. So it was especially interesting to be producing the entire night, acting in “P Tape” with Elaine Glover, then directing the “Caterpillar” show. By now you have noticed I do a lil multi-tasking.

After the “Caterpillar” show, Pastor Phil from New Season curated a Q&A discussion with the three cast members. Ezzy shared her heart regarding each character and how they were born. The 50 or so audience members were treated to this behind the scenes conversation which I thought was wonderful.

In a future post I will share my “P Tape Chronicles” experience that night. But for now stay tuned as the official dates for the next “Caterpillar” performance are Dec 17 & 18. This time we will infuse a Christmas theme throughout the night.
