"GREENER GRASSES..." (A Play About Post Traumatic Slave Disorder) was performed last January, 2007 to packed audiences at Theater For The New City. Danny Simmons said it "If you got dollars for theater, this is what to go see." "GREENER GRASSES..." is a groundbreaking piece illustrating the connections between anti-social, self-destructive behaviors & attitudes in contemporary society with the harsh restrictions of antebellum life. It takes place in two centuries simultaneously (i.e. 19th century plantation, during the time of nat Turner's rebellion and in an "urban" neighborhood in the 21st century). We are currently seeking sponsors/producers so "GREENER GRASSES..." can receive the larger audience it truly deserves. Visit: www.greenergrassestheplay.com

At 8:41am on June 5th, 2008, Rhonda Singletary said…: The poems that I write are about are soul searching. Most of my poetry deals with issues that I have gone through or someone that I know. I have often been called to write poems for occassions. I am in the process of building my network. You will be able to find sample recording soon.
