The
Raccoon Story |
| |
| Charlotte
teams up with her brother, jazz violinist John Blake a jazzy, hilarious
adaptation of a traditional African American southern folktale. Watch
out – the trickster wins this time. You may want to discuss
this with the kids. Anniko is an original adaptation of a story that
celebrates the importance of the gifts we bring to the world. In The
Ant and the Crumb, an ant unsuccessfully attempts to enlist the aid
of friends in resolving a problem. In the end, quite by accident,
he discovers that he had the ability to take care of the situation
on his own. Suitable for all ages. |

Pearls
At The Foot of The Bed |
| |
| Pearls…is
a tribute to Charlotte’s greatest inspiration; her father, John
Blake, Sr. A Praise Song is offered in the tradition of the jalolu
(history tellers) of W. Africa. It is offered in celebration and honor
of those who have gone before us; “to all those whose collective
toil, tears, struggle, hopes, dreams and prayers beckoned us into
existence…” Once In A Dream is a metaphorical story of
spiritual separation, loss, reclamation and triumph. The story parallels
the separation of African people from their homeland and the ongoing
struggle to define themselves on their own terms. Suitable
for ages 12 to adult. |
