This week I’m proud to introduce you to theatre teacher Barb Hilt. I worked with Barb designing projections for her premiere event of the show Miss You Like Hell. Barb is an incredible visionary in the regional and educational theatre spaces in Kansas, and I hope you enjoy reading her musings on the art form as much as I did.
Flor Castilla Zárat and Guido Palacios, in addition to the artistic training and talent they developed, dedicated long hours to specialize, studied and rehearsed for many years and continue doing so. They don’t do it to win a championship, they do it for the love and passion for dancing and to enjoy every single moment. Everything else came later without them expecting it.
Around 2009, longtime friends and touring buddies Lance “KC” Jackson and Bill Reeves noticed in the live event trade magazines (including this one and PLSN) that the stories seemed to always be on the same group of people, pretty much all of the same sex and ethnicity. “If an alien came down and only looked at these two magazines, they’d think no Black people participated in this industry,” Reeves says bluntly.
