THE BLOOD THEY SHED, written, performed and directed by Aaron White, is a semi-autobiographical one-man poetic journey that combines the art of story telling narrative, poetry and comedy. Click below for a sneak peek at the show, which opens at the Hollywood Fringe Festival tonight!
The story is told from the perspective of a young man raised in South Central LA. The journey through his upbringing takes the audience on an emotional ride leading them to laugh, cry and reflect on some of the truths facing people in every corner of today's world. The show invites you into his childhood home of old school soulful tunes, hilarious family members, Charlie Brown re-runs, growing up without a father, media's pop-culture influence and gangster movies being filmed in his backyard. This powerful tale illuminates our issues of today while reminding us of the power that can be used from the wisdom found in our past.
The dramedy unfolds as the show cleverly addresses issues of violence and value systems, discrimination and the dissemination of the family as well as social relationships. By harnessing the power of music, media and ingenious story telling, THE BLOOD THEY SHED tackles troublesome issues fearlessly all-the-while maintaining its heartfelt candor and humor.
Aaron's life and this show has been a journey of discovering what he's really fighting for through the use of his talent and bringing awareness to the heavy affects of negative media on today's youth and society.
