  • "Designing for Tanasia is an absolute pleasure. She is clear on her visions and creates an open and supportive environment for her designers. She came into the design process with creative ideas, while still allowing me as the set designer to grow and build off of her imaginative storytelling, allowing a harmonious collaborative experience."

    Laura Valenti

  • "Tanasia is a dream director any artist would crave to work with. Her authenticity in storytelling comes from intimate place. She has a clear point of you view on the different types of Black woman experiences and you see it being reflected in her work as a director. Not only does Tanasia encourage her actors to investigate text that goes beyond their own per conceived “ideas” but she curated a space that allows her actors the courage and will to do so. Working with Tanasia on Fabulation gave me the opportunity to explore the multitudes of woman that I have inside of me. As a Black woman, it was such an amazing experience for me to work alongside another black woman. It created an atmosphere of understanding and recognition."
