Age of Aquarius (with Natassia Dominique)

Daniel Does DFW Theater

Join us as we sit down with the powerhouse of the DFW theater scene, Natassia Dominique. Embark on a journey from her humble beginnings singing in church to the electric energy of high school stages, and onto the demanding yet rewarding roles in shows like "Little Shop" and "Aida." Natassia's unwavering dedication and infectious positivity have left an indelible mark on the community, and you'll hear how her unique rhythm and commitment to creating a welcoming space have shaped her illustrious career.
The spotlight shines on the craft of character development when Natassia recounts her experiences with two substantial roles: Nettie in "The Color Purple" and Marley in "A Christmas Carol" at DTC. Discover the behind-the-scenes magic and the personal growth that accompanies such layered performances, as well as the invaluable influence of mentors. We also peel back the curtain on the more humorous side of the industry, from dance call fumbles to revelations found in the moving, yet lesser-known musical "Edges."
As our conversation draws to a close, we reflect on the heartbeat of theater — the enduring bonds and shared stories that make each production more than just a show. We pay homage to the cherished Jason Hallman, whose spirit continues to inspire the DFW theater community. We'll also touch on the practical challenges actors face, from nail-biting dance routines to the occasional wardrobe hiccup, without forgetting the pure delight that comes from pursuing personal artistic ventures. Tune in and be inspired by the collective celebration of art, friendship, and the pursuit of dreams right here in Dallas-Fort Worth.
