Photo Recap: Black on a Saturday Night!

On March 16th, 2024, we put on a live sketch comedy show called “Black on Saturday Night.” This was the first show I had the honor to direct at the Avenue Black Box Theatre. I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to work with the fellows at the ave and create something fun and entertaining! I want to thank everyone who showed up to watch, laugh, and support.

Additional people I’d like to thank:

  • Thank you to Ms. Reenah Golden for helping us organize the show and for trusting me to be the teaching artist for this fellowship.
  • Thank you to our photographer Kenya who captured the dope photos below!
  • Thank you to our videographer Tianna of Plug House Media who recorded the event.
  • Thank you to our DJ DJ East Harmony for providing the tunes!
  • Thank you to my girlfriend Ke’Aaira who supported me the whole fellowship and assisted me with the show and fellowship sessions.
  • Thank you to our understudy Samyria who choreographed a dance routine the night before and put up with last minute changes.
  • And thank to all of the 2024 winter fellows (Faith, Genesis, Jazelle, Katrina, Lina, Melo, Nayah, and Taniyah) who performed, wrote, and breathed life into this show with their talents to make this a reality.
  • And an obligatory thank you to my parents and God!

I hope we’re able to bring everyone another great show sometime soon!
