Each day, cities are presented with different challenges.  If only the community can be brought together in order to work on these urban challenges, it would have been easier to overcome these challenges.  This is something that the B. Someday Productions realized.  They also realized that theatre, literature and myth can make it easier to bring the community together with the help of artists.  Together, artists and the community can develop new strategies to work on these challenges.  Read on to know more.

Please tell us a little bit about you.

I am an actor, director and theatre arts educator. I also manage and administer my own theatre company. I act both in my company and for other companies in the Philadelphia and New York City regions. I act in theatre productions, film and commercials. I also write and direct our Family Theatre Series every December. This past year I created and directed Un Viaje–A Christmas Journey, our first bi-lingual family show.

How / why did your organization start? (Background, History)

B. Someday started as a support and publication organization for poets and poetry. It evolved into a theatre production and presenting company, which now has a home at Walking Fish Theatre in Kensington on the Frankford Avenue Arts Corridor. We still incorporate love of literature and myth into whatever theatre production we undertake. We also try to connect with our community, offering outreach programs to high schoolers, as well as acting classes for young people and adults.
