The ROUX  is on a creative beak.
​Stay tuned for more dates soon.

Presented by Verbal Gumbo co-creator Withlove,Felicia  the ROUX is the base for GUMBO. If we are not allowing the youth to create their stories, the roux, then we are missing a key ingredient to our pot of gumbo. The ROUX is the foundation and this physical foundation is a safe space for youth to share their stories freely without judgment or criticism and feel love & support from their friends, family and community.

Birthed in Omaha, Nebraska, in 2013, The Roux is youth fueled and run. Each month the show will expose young people to artistic gems spaces in North Omaha, while giving them the support of caring adults, mentors, teachers who every month will share tips on writing, performing and life. 


The Roux is organized by artist and educator, Ms. Felicia or Withlove,Felicia who is a firm believer in weaving creativity into education to create health whole hueman beings.
