The next phase of my solo performance journey will be committed to creating an authentic online space for my work. This will allow me to overcome barriers and systemic inequities. I have received many amazing opportunities over the years, but the lack of consistency, support, and care within my industry has been challenging. Creating a space for my stories to live is the way forward. I’m proud to launch Roux Digital Lab, a multimedia digital experience on my website. Multimedia digital theatre is a performance in which different creative forms, such as narrative, spoken word/poetry, song, dance, physical theatre, audio, technology, film or video, are blended to tell a story. This digital lab named after an ingredient in gumbo—I’m honoring my cultural legacy by continuing to stir a pot of my own roux.
