"Me and My Shadow" by Whispering Jack Smith (1927)

Sex, drugs, and murder collide in SOMEWHERE I CAN SCREAM, a dramatic play about the investigation of the 1929 murder of Theora Hix, a medical student at a Midwestern university, and her three-year clandestine relationship with Dr. James Snook, Olympic gold medalist-turned-college professor, the prime suspect. Snook was convicted of first-degree murder and became the only U.S. Olympian to be executed in the electric chair, but he may have been acting in self-defense.

Covered by The New York Times, this was the crime of the century in its day-mere months before the Great Depression. Brutal interrogation techniques and evidence tampering during the investigation led to the revision of criminal investigation procedure. Witness the events and decide for yourself if justice was served.

SOMEWHERE I CAN SCREAM, written by Amy Drake and directed by Pierce Cassedy, will be performed weekends from July 8-25, 2021, at The Players Theatre, 115 MacDougal St., New York, New York 10012.

Hello! This is a raw audio sample from my home studio! I use an Warm Audio WA-47jr and SSL Audio Interface in a small area treated with layers of moving blankets and 3 inch foam.

Raw Studio Sample

Carl’s professional acting career began after graduating from Morgan State University in 2012. Finding himself on the set of “House Of Cards” in Baltimore, MD, he knew that acting was the career for him.

Upon moving to Dallas, TX a year later to pursue a career as an aeronautical engineer, he shortly learned he wanted more for himself; acting on weekends and days off before ultimately leaving his position at Lockheed Martin Aeronautics to pursue a full-time career in acting in 3015.

Since then, he’s performed in cities across the country and, finally, finding himself back home in Brooklyn, NY.

Carl is currently the host of Another Shade of Crime Podcast (Apple/Spotify), donning himself  “The Voice of Black True Crime.”

A New York native, Carl intends to create a national presence for himself through theater, film, stand-up & voiceover.
