2017 Apr 21

On Tuesday, April 18th Psychology major Diamond Williams 2018 of Chicago, Ill. was one of 14 Colby-Sawyer students to perform in "The Bronx is Burning: An Audiovisual Production," which combined film, dance, spoken word poetry and visual art in an explosive expression of Bronxite culture.

The production was the core of media studies major Nathaly Abreu '17's senior capstone project. According to the show's program, through Abreu's "love of lighting, sound and performing arts, The Bronx is Burning exibits the urban decay of the 1970s and the artistic escapism that propelled out of it: from notorious ashes to underground talents."
