On Saturday, August 10th, 2013 I had the pleasure to cover the stage play "Just For The Love of Money" written by the lovely Sheila Finn and directed by the talented Marquise Hodges! This was definitely a great experience and I'm so grateful for the opportunity. Read more below!

He also revised the original copy of "Somthing Special Is About To Happen" which was written and produced by his father, Mr. Marquise D. Hodges. After the passing of his father in 1999, Marquise continued to stay inspired by his father and decided to keep his legacy going. During the interview Marquise stated that he admires several directors in the industry but if given the opportunity he would love to work with Chip Fields, Lee Daniels and Loren D. Harper. Lastly, Marquise offered words of encouragement. "Stay focused, Keep dreaming, Keep working, and Stay consistent with passion." -Marquise Hodges |
