The Art of Living Your Dream- a behind the scenes look on The Art of Being

This is a behind the scenes look at The Art of Being's inception, the GLAMOUR/Toyota Award Adriana Garza won for being the woman behind the play, and the non-profit tour of the play in 2007. The Art of Being was originally performed in Los Angeles in 2006 and went on to make stops in Chicago, San Antonio, and El Paso before returning to Los Angeles. In every city a different art related non-profit organization received the evening's proceeds because Adriana wanted to take the play's message that individuality is a gift we all possess which we can choose to honor and that humanity is equality while supporting the arts across the nation. Joy Nash's monologue, which opens the play since 2006 went on to be one of the top rated videos on you tube which can be seen by searching Joy Nash Fat Rant. This marked Adriana's first production and with her second production she went on to win Paulo Coelho's The Experimental Witch International Film Competition and had her first film premiere at the Rome Film Festival in 2009.
