Trapeze artists featured in "Dangerous Shadows" music video are scheduled as featured performers for actor Ian Somerhalder's "Empoweresque" fund raiser in Atlanta on October 29th, 2011. Tanya Hoover, Keith Hoover, and Marek Kaszuba will perform static trapeze, incorporating unique choreography from music video.

Somerhalder, a popular actor best known for his performances in "Lost and "The Vampire Diaries",  created the Ian Somerhalder Foundation to empower, educate and collaborate with people and projects to positively impact the planet and its creatures.

The fundraiser will be held at The Opera, a lovely historic Atlanta, Georgia building. The theme of the soiree is awakening the unique powers of women. 

Empoweresque is a celebration...

An awakening of the uniqueness and power within women.
If you think being sexy is akin to throwing on a pair of heels, think again...
It's about the woman within knowing that SHE has the power to change the world.

It's not what you look like.
It's not about your size, age, colour or faith.
It's who you ARE.
It’s your passion, your strength and your ability to inspire and lead change not just within yourself, but within others.
It's about awakening your divine femininity and becoming an "Empoweress."

This awakening within yourself will forever change you, and uniting empowered women will forever change the world.
Historically, we've seen phenomenal female change makers. These women "stand up and stand out", but why must they stand up as ONE woman when we can "stand up & stand out" together to radically transform the world as one UNITED divine force?
What are you waiting for?

The first documented music video based on a scene from a novel is in post production. The video for contemporary gothic suspense, "The House on Black Lake" was filmed by acclaimed cinematographer Frazer Bradshaw at reknowned author Sam Keen's ranch in Sonoma. The piece also features work of Trapeze Pro aerial artists performing a new flying/ static trapeze act called "The Heroine's Journey".

It will feature a dramatic new song, titled "Dangerous Games" . Keith Hoover, Elliot Shoenbart, and John W. Arnst play roles in drama and are featured in photographs.

Rock of Ages just finished a run at the Curran Theater in San Francisco. It stars American Idol favorite Constantine Maroulis and a cast of highly talented singers and dancers. Audiences universally are on their feet and rave at end of show. It's an uplifting treat not to be missed.

The Broadway hit rock musical "Rock of Ages" is presently touring through American, and throughout the world. It's great fun, and blast to the past that proves the enduring legacy of rock.

As a professional actress I attempt to see as many live shows as possible. But, particularly now that I am producing music video am focusing on musicals. Enjoyed meeting Constantine Maroulis at closing of performances in San Francisco.
