Actress, Director and Producer Keena Ferguson, will showcase her one woman show KEENA: UNBRANDED The Solo Experience at the fourth annual Hollywood Fringe Festival, in Los Angeles. The festival is one of the largest uncensored performing arts festivals in the country, where performances are self-produced by local, national, and international arts companies and independent artists.
UNBRANDED written and produced by Ferguson, takes its audience on a journey into the many characters and facets of Ferguson's life that has shaped her as a person and a performer. Expressed in a non-linear way, its message is to live out loud without accepting the stereotypical branding labels often administered to ones background, personality and success. Ferguson describes the production as "A moving picture of evolved moments in my life, allowing personal growth beyond limited expectations of what others may have perceived to be barriers. I'm coming out of the "branded" box and showing the world who I really am."
Ferguson first debuted Unbranded March 2013, at the Lillian Theatre in Los Angeles. Audiences marveled at her creativity as she weaved personal experiences through raw storytelling and performances. Cynthia Kaye McWilliams of BET's Real Husbands of Hollywood says, "Keena boldly dances, poetically speaks and hilariously weaves this story of self-actualization in a unique style all her own." Debra Wilson of MAD TV, states "Unbranded is engaging, heart breaking and triumphant, and the storytelling is no less than grippingly soul bearing."
Despite, pushing herself to full exposure, Ferguson says, "through this platform the audience will hopefully experience the true brand of the human self; connecting with people through commonality."
Keena Unbranded: The Solo Experience will run on select dates at The Hollywood Fringe Festival June 7th-June 30th. www.hollywoodfringe.org
