Anthony R. Page Directs the Inaugural Stage Play from Achemistry Productions Starring Nathan Rothwell and Olaundra Grace

-
AUGUSTA. Anthony R. Page has been a long-time collaborator with actors Nathan Rothwell and Olaundra Grace. With several successful productions to their credit, the three have wonderful creative synergy. Electing to develop their own projects, Rothwell and Grace will launch a new production company Achemistry Productions with an innovative play series titled: HE Say SHE Say: The Unspoken Conversation. Building on their collaborative history, the team has selected Anthony to direct the production.

In the production, the pair of established actors will portray five different characters in a play series that includes five one-act stage plays. To that end, Rothwell and Grace have constructed stories around PTSD, terminal illness, infidelity, divorce, and dating. Each story has its own rhythm, tone, and texture, which was by design as the two actors wanted to challenge themselves to the limit of their creative ability.

Page stated, "I love working with these two. They have put in quite a bit of time to write 5 distinctive one-acts that will stretch them as actors. In addition, I believe this show will set a strong precedent for the works they hope to complete as a company. Furthermore, both are at great levels of maturity as actors and have been doing some of their best work. Expect to experience the best of Nathan's kinetic energy and characterizations and Olaundra's intense, layered and honest performance style. 


Nathan and Olaundra will be joined on stage by special guest Comedienne Poncere. She is one of the top voices in comedy in Augusta and is sure to make her presence known throughout the evening. There will also be a special dance segment put together by choreographers Gabriel Terry and Seve Adigun (who is the national executive artistic director of The Soul Dancing Project).

The production is presented by Maryland Fried Chicken and will premiere at the newly-renovated Imperial Theatre on August 5th at 7pm.

Triggered and Tripped By Traumas (Anecdotes of Internal Observation)

TRIGGERED AND TRIPPED BY TRAUMAS (Anecdotes of Internal Observation) I'm up this morning journaling and setting the course for a successful week. I typically take the time to do somewhat of an after-action report to assess what I did well the previous week and what could be better. It's my commitment to continuous improvement.  As my business has grown, I find myself engaging with larger and much more diverse groups. Not just in the typical demographics of race, gender, and age, but more in the uniqueness of how they think, what they prioritize, and how they engage in business.  I don't talk as much as I used to. I find myself more often than not stepping back and observing, listening, absorbing, and discerning. One thing I've noticed in so many instances is how professionals have been triggered by something someone said or did and then tripped by their own traumas.  Often without knowing it, people are traipsing over and triggering traumas, causing a tragic build-up of
