  • Her Heart's Dance
    Apr 4 2023

    A wooden front porch is the stage capturing this theatrical short story of Ann, the love that got away, and a heart so broken, it has not healed and seemingly cannot do so decades later.

    Ann wears her sorrow like a burning salve against her skin, constantly sharing it with other porch visitors Cliff and Chayonne, and telling it for the first time to the teenaged Sugar who gets a kick out of the stories recounted on the porch.

    What will host E. Claudette Freeman and her panel of coaches/counselors Weena Cullins and Renee Odrick unravel in this story?

    Our cast in this short is:
    Regina Gigi Hodges as Ann
    Joseph R Cray as Cliff
    Toni Tenaj as Sugar

    She thought her heart and life would be safe with him. She met him  on campus, they shared common interests. he seemed the ideal man to marry. But the words I DO opened an invitation to disregard, disrespect, and physical abuse. The words "til death do us part" ring as a promise in her soul as she faces the demon she swore to love. [
