I’ve been acting for 20 years. I’ve been in the hospitality service for 10. I’ve been pursing stand-up for 6 years now. I create to live.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Experiences, art that lives on stage.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in pain. Pain offers a relatable experience that touch people world-wide. Within the pain, is humanity. Maybe even something we can all look back and laugh at.
What would you do with $25,000?The first thing I would do is produce a play about homelessness. I recently took a major restaurant job in Manhattan, NY only downside is I have no support or money to lean on. At this moment I’m living in a shelter in Brooklyn. Then after I produce my play, I would then filmed 25 mins worth of stand up comedy. Getting the chance to produce my indie work and build a special community. God bless you, and thank you for the opportunity. I just need someone to take a chance on me.
