THE GREY SUIT SOCIETY  
A STORY OF FAITH, FAMILY, DEVOTION, BETRAYAL AND…RATS?

A message that might seem so obvious in real life turns into a magic moment of awareness when it is takes to the stage with talented directors and a fine cast.

Carlos Heredia is the actor, director and writer who with David Fletcher as music director has brought together a group of actors for a family friendly opera. Together they sounded as good as the show’s beautiful theme of peace.

Who is the star of a show that is about family and devotion?  

Leading the cast, is Analia Heredia as Nia who must go against society’s grain, to bring human hypocrisy into the light.  

As she hopes to move out of the shadows in to a bright new world, her family includes Claudillea Holloway as Jelani,  Georgia Fender as Etana,  Sonya Rice as Achi, Carly Ameling as Jane,   Codie Milford as Omari,  Liz Neitge as Janna,  andTiana Markman as Dini.

The “others” are Shaotian Cai as the Host, Gabriel Arrieta as Dr Oppenheimer and Danielle Maqsood Giusto as the Mayor.

Kudos to them all and to Delsa Heredia  who as the Dance Choreographer kept them all moving.

The Grey Suit Society had a limited run from Aug. 8-10, 2017 -  its message of human hope lasts a life time.

               TINA - THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL  at The National Theatre              In the 1970s, I  had spent weeks climbing around ruins in Peru.  I heard music of the Andes all over.  I  was  finally at  Machu Picchu to spend the night so I could get up early  and climb to see the sunrise from the top of the ruins.   As I got to steps by the gatekeepe,  I could hear his boom box blaring across the Andes “I Wanna Take You Higher”  by Tina Turner.   You don’t have to go climbing the Andes to hear her songs — Tina-The Tina Turner Musical  isright here  at the National Theatre, Washington DC,  until  Oct. 23, 2022.    The show has broken all records with the awards it has received since in premiered in April 2018 in London.  No one questions that Tina is a musical legend but  for this show  accolades to  the stars Naomi Rodgers and Zurin Villanueva who alternate in the  spectacular role.   At every performance there will be people  who remember seeing Tina “back when” and
