Ashé Cultural Arts Center Blog: Thank You for Helping to Make Swimming Upstream a Success

Thank You for Helping to Make Swimming Upstream a Success

The Cast of Swimming Upstream

We wanted a New Orleans style send-off to the Apollo and we got it. The audience became part of the magic of the evening as they amened, applauded, laughed, cried with us through the evening's show. We went through it together those on stage and those in the audience.much as we have the disaster and the recovery.

We sang a love song to the spirit of New Orleans and New Orleans hollered back. Thanks for the part you play in our lives. "Swimming Upstream" is some of what we have to give in return.

We hope to do you proud in New York.
