"As played by Rogers, Aunt Len conveys the wisdom of the artist as visionary... projecting through the musicality of her voice and her large, expressive eyes."
"Rogers has always been a storyteller, using her experiences in the realms of acting and artistry to inform her own projects creatively."
Alva Rogers, a multitalented artist, stars in her new show "The Harlem Doll Palace," detailing a narrative about life and memory through the eyes of Aunt Len. Set in a Harlem brownstone, the production is a rich blend of storytelling, puppetry, and music, emphasizing Rogers' unique understanding of narrative due to her diverse experiences in the arts. Her character, Aunt Len, tends to a "dollection" of loving dolls that symbolize protection and life, illustrating Rogers' vision as a storyteller and creator.
