Tyler Perry – the Trailblazer Award Waco Theater Center, 2019
TYLER PERRY – THE TRAILBLAZER AWARD WACO THEATER CENTER, 2019 On Saturday, June 1, 2019, actor, playwright and filmmaker Tyler Perry will receive The Trailblazer Award at WACO Theater Center’s Wearable Art Gala in Los Angeles. Perry’s inspirational journey from the hard streets of New Orleans to the heights of Hollywood's A-list is the stuff of American legend. Born into poverty and raised in a household scarred by abuse, Perry fought from a young age to find the strength, faith and perseverance that would later form the foundations of his much-acclaimed plays, films, books and shows. It was a simple piece of advice from Oprah Winfrey that set Perry's career in motion. Encouraged to keep a diary of his daily thoughts and experiences, he began writing a series of soul-searching letters to himself. The letters, full of pain and in time, forgiveness, became a healing catharsis. His writing inspired a musical, I Know I've Been Changed, and in 1992, Perry gathered his life's savings in hopes of staging it for sold out crowds. He spent all the money but the people never came, and Perry once again came face to face with the poverty that had plagued his youth. He spent months sleeping in seedy motels and his car but his faith - in God and, in turn, himself - only got stronger. He forged a powerful relationship with the church, and kept writing. In 1998 his perseverance paid off and a promoter booked I Know I've Been Changed for a limited run at a local church-turned-theatre. -

THR 327 | African American Theater Performance Department of Theatre, The University of Kansas Professor: Dr. Nicole Hodges Persley | Spring 2010 Office Hours: Tuesday & Thursday: 3:30 – 4:30 PM or by appointment GTA: Jeff List [email protected] Office: Murphy Hall, Room 229 Contact Phone (785) 864-2820 Email: [email protected] Class Blog: www.kuafamtheater2010.blogspot.com Course Description This course will introduce students to key plays and performances that have produced the African American Theatre repertoire from 1958 to the present. From A Raisin in the Sun to the Urban Theater Circuit, students will engage in a wide range of theater and performance texts that reflect expressions of African American life in performance. Broad themes of the course include but are not limited to the performance of black subjectivity; double consciousness; performing race; racial essentialism; color politics; cultural nationalism; racial stereotypes; civil rights; and social protest. Students are encouraged to attend performances of African American plays, spoken word events and performance art in Lawrence (or the surrounding area) for class participation credit. This course employs an inter-textual perspective that privileges texts for the stage as it engages African American Theatre as a site of performance that continues to strongly influence other theatrical genres of performance such as television, film, fine art and performance art. Goals: The goals of the course are to help students: 1) understand the key playwrights, actors and general history of African American Theater and performance of the time period discussed; 2) understand the specific social, cultural, political factors that produce a play; 3) critically and artistically articulate verbally and in writing, the genealogy of African American Theatre; 4) identify how African American Theatre shapes popular culture and influences and contributes to mainstream American Theatre. -
