Twilight Repertory CompanyJames is the Artistic Director of Twilight Repertory Company, a multicultural performing arts company based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Its mission is the presentation of material which is topical and educational, reflecting the broader social concerns of justice, equal opportunity, and personal and social health and welfare. Twilight Rep is committed to the presentation of underrepresented theatrical and dance forms, new work from playwrights of color, and deconstructed plays from the multicultural repertory. simple thoughts, based on the Langston Hughes character Jesse B. Semple, was its inaugural production and debuted at the New York International Fringe Festival.
Two other works (empty, a dance/theater piece based on the myth of Echo and Narcissus by New York-based artist Joe Salvatore, and The Move, a play based on Mexican playwright Vicente Leñero’s La mudanza) have been produced in Charlotte and workshopped in New York. Twilight Rep also developed a new work for the 2006 International Fringe Festival, Requiem For New Orleans, a political and social critique of Katrina’s aftermath fusing hip hop and traditional elements of the Requiem Mass.
