Hello Community…
My name is Roxy the Entertainer; a Film Maker and Theatre Practitioner. I have been practicing Drama (Stage & Film) for over 10 Years. I studied Theatre & Film Making in University of Nigeria, Nsukka.
I am an NFT Artist; a Council Member in 9ines DAO and a Co-Founder of Thespians DAO.
The THESPIANS DAO is a community of Actors & Actresses who perform for both Stage and Film; including the crew members behind the stage and camera.
The DAO uses the acting platform to educate, entertain and give solutions to world problems, using the NEAR Ecosystem as it’s driving force.
As part of our tradition in Thespians DAO, we will always entertain the Ecosystem with either Stage Drama or Film Drama, every Month.
After a successful outing in July, where we hosted more than 40 Guests during our maiden Stage Drama, titled “Pepper Soup”
Check out the report below:
We are encouraged and happy to introduce to you another form of Drama, that we will be bringing to the Ecosystem this August. It is a Dance Drama.
Just as the name suggests, Dance-Drama is the blend of two creative ventures; the rhythmic movement of the body to musical accompaniments (dance) and the entertaining cum educative transposition of an actor into what he is not (drama).
The beauty of this melodious art is its total-theatre (dance, music, drama) nature, for it is a complete art; thus it is guaranteed that the audience will be held spellbound until the curtain is summoned
In this project, we would be collaborating with a Dance School in Nigeria, known as Formular Dance Academy; to host the DANCE DRAMA. And as usual, we are rest assured we will onboard many of them during the project; and as well teach them in details about Web3 Ecosystem, NFT and NEAR Protocol.
The aim of this project is to engage this Dance School in our production processes and get them going in the Web3 Ecosystem as well; teaching them about $NEAR and onboarding all of them.
The Dance Drama would be an avenue to also lure the audience to listen to us and learn more about Web3, while they get entertained as well.
GOAL:
- To Onboard Minimum of 20 New Members
- To sensitize the general public about NEAR Protocol and Web3
- To Entertain
- To Educate
- To generate one main video and 20 picture NFTs during the Dance Drama.
