MaineDrama: Making the Uncomfortable, Comfortable: April 2014

Hello Friends!

I hope you are well! As you know, I am in middle of production for my next project, Point...Blank...Period! I'm so excited about the show and what's down the pipeline.

We just went through a few rounds of auditions and will start rehearsals at the end of this month! Time is flying and there is still a mountain of things to accomplish before opening night. I hope that you've been keeping up with our progress through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and my website!

With anything that you want to do, and do it well, it takes financing. First off, thank you to everyone that has financially supported us thus far. It means so much and has helped us to keep this production going. But we still have a ways to go. Won't you help us out? Below is a link to donate today. Your support is how we keep going.

Tell your friends and keep driving the buzz about this show! I promise, it will be well worth it! The production is being presented as part of the 2014 Capital Fringe Festival, running July 10-27, 2014.

Love you all and thank you in advance!

HELP US MEET OUR GOAL!

but somewhere between awkward, pre-pubescent,
giggle inducing, curiously animated films
in elementary school…annnnnd realizing
the blue liquid in maxi-pad commercials
was actually supposed to be red…
(which took me, way too long)

I guess, I grew up a bit

Guess what we did? We got the male perspective! That's right...we got into the man's mind about the woman's monthly visit. Want to hear more? You've got to stay connected with us, promote us, and donate!

We're always fundraising and trying to spread the word about Point...Blank...Period! It won't stop until the premiere of the show, July 10-27, 2014!

Point…Blank…Period! is a riveting compilation of spoken word, monologues, and short scenes centered around a woman’s period! That’s right…that monthly visitor that we can’t live with but can’t live without. This production will look at various women’s love/hate relationship with that life-giving function that we so desperately need. Whether you’re a man or woman, this promises to be a funny and insightful look at ‘Aunt Flow.’

FEATURED EMERGING
ARTIST OF THE MONTH

Kenya D. Morris, affectionately known as "Kenya D.", prides herself in capitalizing on every opportunity that is given to her and using her passion for media and the arts to make a positive impact in the lives of others. Kenya is a native of Los Angeles, California, and received her collegiate education as a Radio/TV/Film student within the School of Communications, as well as a Theatre Arts student within the Division of Fine Arts at Howard University in Washington, DC.

Kenya's love for the arts was sparked in her adolescence via touring nationally, as well as internationally with her high school's musical theatre ensemble. She continued to hone her skills in college by co-producing and acting in several student led TV, film, and theatre productions; coordinating, hosting, and participating in a monthly talent showcase on campus called "Wednesday Night Live"; and finding her voice as a writer via blogging, poetry, and spoken word. All of these opportunities have contributed to her love for artistic expression, as well as community outreach.

Kenya is currently an education administrator, and a freelance consultant. When she isn't busy writing, doing make up, focusing on social activism, or performing & speaking at events in the DC area, you can probably find her screaming at her TV over a Lakers or Cowboys game, eating dessert, or playing with her adopted miniature poodle named Kanye Fancypants Morris (yes...that is really his name).

She is a co-writer for MaineDrama Productions' current project Point...Blank...Period!, and looks forward to all that is to come. It is her desire to utilize her skills to make a positive lasting impression on the world and to assist in equipping others to do the same.
