Stacy Dyson
Stacy Dyson is a poet, acapella vocalist, a playwright who specializes in the life and times of the Black woman. "Someone has to sing for my sisters. Their lives, loves, philosophy...There are centuries of stories begging to be told. I'm lucky enough to be one able to make those voices be heard". Ms Dyson has done program design, residencies, workshops, and live performances in Colorado, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, New Mexico, South Dakota, Nebraska, Nevada, and all over San Diego. "But the stage is my natural habitat. It's fine to tell your stories, but for me, unless I can vibe, interact with a crowd, my job is only half-done." A former Poet Laureate for Imagination Celebration (Colorado Springs) a nominee for Poet Laureate for the State of Colorado. Founder/Lead Poet DragonsWing (Colorado Springs) and CoFounder/Lead Poet for Page to Stage: Women's Words (San Diego) she is also a Pikes Peak Community Foundation Individual Merit Award recipient, a Colorado Women's Playwriting Festival winner for her play FANNIE'S GIRLS: A 4-1-1 IN -5PART ATTITUDE, and a TEDx speaker. "It's never, ever about my single voice. So, the shows and women's workshops are extremely important to me. Especially now, our lives literally depend on knowing how to speak our truth, share our stories, bring thunder and healing with our voices. The workshops are women only because women will say and bring forth deeper parts of their souls when surrounded and supported by other women. I've heard stories, confessions, etc... Those conversations, those places have to be given due honour. They have to continue." Currently, Stacy is promoting her newest collection of poetry FOLLOW ME ON THIS. In the Spring of 2021, she'll release a collection of poems written during the pandemic titled LOVELY AND SUFFERING. Coming soon is AUGUST 5000, a play about sisters and their relationship, plus a new women's writing/performance workshop called FIRESCRIBE.
