Gesa Power House Theatre and Teatro Popular are proud to partner in welcoming actor and screenwriter Darius Wallace to the stage in this latest production: THE POET. THE PROPHET. THE MADMAN. THE DREAMER. Join us on Friday, April 17 at 7PM for this incredible live theatre production.
After living nine lives ruled by fear, fate, and deferred dreams, one man discovers the transformative power of faith and claims his true calling as poet, prophet, madman, and dreamer. Blending autobiography and myth, this one-man performance follows a variety of characters, songs and audience interaction in the life of a man and actor who becomes awakened to his personal power and the collective liberation.
