Courageous Theatre
May 24th, 2010
I’m reworking a theatre piece to become the multi-media piece I’ve always known it’s destined to be. A fellow playwright mentioned Roger Guenveur Smith, an artist who uses film and live theatre. His piece about the Black Panthers leader, Huey P. Newton.
Watching the piece on YouTube made me uncomfortable… I could honestly feel the risk involved. It was smart, insightful, and well done.
I was not only inspired by the character’s story, but inspired by the actor’s willingness to “go there.” And I guess that’s where I am right now.
I have to be willing to go full out, to go there…even if it’s further than I’ve ever gone. Even if I don’t know how it’s going to turn out.
