Charles D. Dantzler Releases SEEING YOUR SETBACK AS A SETUP FOR YOUR COMEBACK
by Christina Mancuso - Dec 7, 2016


Charles D. Dantzler was born in the 1950s; a time of rapid change in the world, and was stricken with polio at the age of two. With a life beginning on the cusp of the information-driven, technology-based society known today, Dantzler was able to experience the tail end of yesterday while living to see where we are headed for our tomorrow. Dantzler, a graduate of Flint Northern High School, is the second of six children born to a stay-at-home, God-fearing, loving mother and a hardworking father, a factory line worker for the General Motors Corporation. Charles was raised in a working-class neighborhood where everyone knew one another, and his upbringing as well as his receiving the salvation experience at age fifteen have not only enabled him to move beyond the results of the polio since age two but also laid the foundation for his present-day life.

BWW Reviews: Variations on a Theme - Three Musicals, THE COLOR PURPLE, CALVIN BERGER, and LA CAGE AUX FOLLES, All Speak to Beauty and Self-Worth
by Jill Schafer - Jan 27, 2015


At first glance, the musicals THE COLOR PURPLE, CALVIN BERGER, and LA CAGE AUX FOLLES may not seem to have much in common. The settings couldn't be more different - the rural South in the early 20th century, a modern day high school, and a drag club in 1970s France. But since I happened to see them all on the same weekend, I couldn't help but draw parallels between them. All three musicals all speak to themes of beauty, identity, self-worth, and having the courage to be who you really are, despite what the world is telling you. In THE COLOR PURPLE, a young, poor, black woman is told that she's ugly and worthless, but after a lifelong journey she arrives at a place of strength and self-love. CALVIN BERGER sets the classic play Cyrano de Bergerac in a modern high school, where a young man feels that his large nose prevents him from getting what he wants in life and chooses to hide behind the handsome popular guy, both of whom eventually learn it's better to be loved for who you are. Finally, in LA CAGE AUX FOLLES, a middle aged man who feels more comfortable dressed as a woman is asked by his own son to hide who he is, but confidently declares 'I am who I am!' Another thing these three musicals have in common is that they can all currently be seen on Twin Cities stages featuring talented local casts. Read on for more details on each, pick one that suits your fancy, and go see a local musical that just may inspire you to love you you really are!
