This chapter of Panther Women: An Army for the Libration by India Nicole Burton in Bloomington-Normal is now over and so blessed to have had the wonderful people of Coalescence Theatre Project open their arms to me! Teaching my 1st theatre workshop in a school setting at ISU was rewarding and so fulfilling, collaborating with the Garvey Tubman Center and the NAACP in the area made me feel like we accomplished what we came to do. Sharing history, empowering Black Women and highlighting marginalized theatre professionals will always be in my bag. Until the next project…see you on stage 💜 . . . . #chicagotheatre #blacktheatre #blactress #theatre #chicagoactors #actingjourney #blackactress #blackgirlmagic   #directingjourney #blackdirectors #pantherwomen #bloomingtonnormal #bloomington #donate

BBH :: Garland Anderson ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Garland Anderson made history as the first African-American to have a full-length drama produced on Broadway. Despite lacking any playwriting background or formal theatrical training, Anderson, a self-educated individual, drew from his time as a hotel bellhop to craft his play “Appearances.” Through this work, he intertwined his personal experiences and beliefs, emphasizing the value of hard work in pursuit of the quintessential American dream. He initially faced challenges in getting his play “Appearances” produced on Broadway. Despite encountering rejection from several producers, he persisted in pursuing his dream, eventually finding success when producer Al Jolson took interest in the play and helped bring it to the Broadway stage. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #blackhistory #broadwayblackhistory #blaywright #broadway #theatre #blacktheatre #blacktheatreunited

This past weekend I was able to drop some knowledge off to the amazing theatre students and visitors of ISU. Can’t wait to see this next generation of artists out in the world making magic happen with the right tools to do so. They were so receptive and absorbed so much knowledge, even got a good job from a professor! Is teaching college kids theatre in my future? Idk about that but you can definitely take one of my one on one consulting classes, so you too can make sure you are ready for this industry coming out of college. #linkinbio . . . . . #chicagotheatre #blacktheatre #blactress #theatre #chicagoactors #actingjourney #blackactress #blackgirlmagic   #directingjourney #blackdirectors #pantherwomen #bloomingtonnormal #bloomington #donate

I finally have the play!!! I went to see Shifters a month ago and fell in love with the writing. Such beautiful expressions of love, devotion, friendship, loss and everything in-between. I'm looking forward to reading this and exploring ways to use it (maybe in the classroom) or for inspiration! @nickhernbooks #BlackBritishLiterature #BlackBritishWriters #BlackJoy #BlackTheatre #literature

🇨🇿 Hay una leyenda que cuenta que si paseas de noche por la ciudad vieja de Praga, en concreto en la calle Liliova, puede que te cruces con el fantasma de un jinete sin cabeza. Si lo ves… escapa! 🍺 Chequia cuenta con un curioso record, es el país con más consumo de cerveza del mundo entero, 155 litros al año por persona. 🏰 El castillo de Praga es el castillo antiguo más grande del mundo, su area es de 70.000 metros cuadrados. . . . #prague #praga #czechia #chequia #charlesbridge #charlesbridgeprague #travelphotography #traveltheworld #travel #travelgram #traveling #traveler #viajar #photooftheday #goodvibes #blacktheatre #teatronegro #beer #cerveza #instagay #bridge

I’m not a seamstress. I just play one on tv. The @generalbakerinstitute where I take sewing classes is also the location of the theater program my kid is in. They performed this weekend as part of an ensemble, “The Negro Mother” by Langston Hughes. Last week, I was given fabric to make her skirt for the play. Of course, I jumped at the chance because I’ve sewn some thangs…with a lot of supervision. What was I thinking? I have never sewn a skirt. I have never sewn clothing of any kind. 😬 So I did what any good seamstress does… I improvised. 🤭 I made an “apron.” It will do. And did! . . #sewingmama #blacktheatre #langstonhughes #intergenerational #detroitartist #communitycare
