Artist Spotlight: Star of "Starry Road to Freedom: The Life of Frederick Douglass" w/Darius Wallace

  1. Artist Spotlight: Star of "Starry Road to Freedom: The Life of Frederick Douglass" w/Darius Wallace The Kandid Shop Podcast LLC 47:33

Ever wondered how a person's life could pivot on a single moment or 2?
That's what happened to Darius Wallace, a one-time gang-involved teen whose life took a dramatic turn toward the footlights thanks to a teacher's timely intervention. My guest this week is the extraordinary Darius himself, whose powerful one-man shows breathe life into historical giants like Frederick Douglass and Malcolm X.
He doesn't just portray these icons; he embodies their spirit, sharing a journey that reminds us of the transformative power of storytelling!

This heart-to-heart isn't just a walk through Darius's personal narrative; it's a treasure trove of Wisdom for anyone with a dream of the stage or film. He opens up about the grit required to weather the storm of industry rejections, the proactive pursuit of opportunities, and the incredible serendipity that can strike in places as mundane as a Starbucks.
Darius gives us a peek into his toolkit for mental and emotional balance, with practices ranging from Tai Chi to absorbing inspiring media.
For those mapping out their own creative path or seeking a spark of motivation, this episode is a compelling blend of life lessons, professional insights, and the kandid truth of one artist's journey.
Keep your eye open for 2 upcoming  films that feature Darius as lead or Director: Queens Rising-October 2024 and Damaged Goods- 2024.
