" A shield is not made on the battlefield"
Tonnerre, while being drunk is said to have exclaimed, after reading a first draft of the Act of Independence by the mulatto Charéron: "All that which has been formulated is not in accordance with our true feelings; to draw up the Act of Independence, we need the skin of a white man for parchment, his skull for a writing desk [Inkwell?], his blood for ink, and a bayonet for pen."

“The Cycle” is a theatrical trilogy and an awakening theatrical expression that provides us with a reason why every individual acts, thinks and chooses different paths in life. This is what we call a “Cycle”. It represents the reoccurring issues in ones life that just won’t let go of you. And illustrates how we form habits of living through heredity, education, society and even friends.
However, the true definition of change is a release from one’s past that develops into an innovative mind for your future. Therefore a renewal of the mind must take place in order to completely break the often at times destructive series of life.
This purpose driven theatre piece to will provide: Provision for needs, long-suffering for habits, joy for sorrow, strength for the weak and assurance for the strong.
These performances will be dedicated to:
THOSE WHO:
