Actress Angel L. Henderson plays the lead in the film "At This Time..."

Blue Bistro Creative and the Studio Blue Acting Conservatory are thrilled to announce their collaboration with SAB Entertainment on an exciting new featurette inspired by the life experiences of writer SA Brown. Titled "At This Time...," this compelling film promises to captivate audiences with its powerful storytelling and remarkable cast.

"At This Time..." stars Angel L. Henderson in a breakout role, portraying the lead character, Synclaire. The character's life is filled with disappointments and regrets, and now, at the age of 35, she finds herself drowning in a sea of unfulfilled ambitions, leaving her with nothing but a numbing sense of purposelessness.

Brown, shared insights into the inspiration behind the film, "I conceived this story as a way of explaining how I feel when I am in a dark place."

Henderson, whose performance is exceptional, spent some time with Brown, which led to a deeper commitment and understanding of the character.

"So much of this character is me. While I’ve never contemplated taking my life, I have come to understand how people arrive at that decision. I identify with life in itself seemingly being an ongoing struggle. A fight to live and flourish in the spaces you desire to be in. And facing rejection on every hand. Since my bout with COVID in early 2021, I’ve had challenges with depression. And I know firsthand how difficult it is to pull yourself out of that place." ~ Angel L. Henderson
