Hello lovely friend's, It’s Grayson again
with your monthly DFW arts news!
I, myself, have been busy travelling for a month to California
and surrounding states, doing art and making new connections, enjoying the
break of summer as much as possible. I was so wrapped up in the process of
becoming a better artist, I didn't have time to write an article for July, which I
apologize to you for, my people! But I have lots of interesting things to tell you about
the month of August and a little about the past month of July- all of arts news!
Oh, August. The month children dread and parent’s love. The month of summer
starting to wind down and school starting back up, the usual daily routine, the usual
work day, and for us artists: so many things to do! New music being created and
produced, new movies being planned and shot, movie screenings, models gearing up
for a successful season of gorgeous shots, the dancers begin training again- the list
goes on and on. At my school, Booker T. Washington High School For The
Performing and Visual Arts, we love August because we cannot wait to get back to
school and start creating with our friend's again. Even the academics are fun! We may
die from sleep deprivation throughout the year, but it’s what we love and want to do
with our lives, so it’s worth it.
We have tons of shows you have to come see if you’re ever in
the middle of Downtown Dallas- so, check out our website for more
information! www.disd.org/bookert :) On another note of theater: Junior Players, a
non profit theater here in Dallas, has busted out another show stopping production
with Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare with many of my friend's as leads and many a
great performance to be seen, as usual with a Junior Player’s production- make sure
to keep them on your radar for future shows! Another theater company here, Cry
Havoc, recently wrapped up their debut production of Babel, a riveting story following
the tales of gun violence and what it does to people, showing the different sides of
what goes on in and around the stories you hear.
