As Romeo & Juliet opens later this week, I’m filled with gratitude. A year ago I was manifesting a meaty role and that’s exactly what I’ve received in the role of Friar Laurence.
Time and space away from theatre has been healing and rewarding. It’s been exciting to exercise new growth with a director that’s consistently believed in me throughout the years and an immensely talented cast and production team.
Romeo & Juliet is another bangahhh🥵✨

Premiere night of ‘Runs In The Family’ sure was familial. The best part was having my mom (2nd frame) there to witness it all, especially the overwhelming love this q***r community has for each other.
Available worldwide on Netflix.
Thank you to everyone at Giant Films for making this premiere happen and courtney__rabbit for capturing these beautiful moments 🥹🫶🏽✨

When talent meets a face card that doesn’t decline, you have box office numbers that don’t decline either 👀🎬☎️
