In This Moment Now: Count It All Joy hosted by T. Mychael Rambo, Aimee K. Bryant, and Ryan Bynum at the Theater at Saint Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists in St. Paul.
Ryan Bynum’s original song, “I’m so proud and blessed to be…In This Moment…Now” kickstarts the show as T. Mychael and Aimee lead an ensemble of African American performers in poetry, spoken word, dance, and song. This is the third edition of In This Moment having been presented originally in 2020 as a response to the murder of George Floyd.
In This Moment Now: Count It All Joy is a powerful, joyful performance of the full range of feelings of what it means to be African American in these times, in this community, now. T. Mychael Rambo and Aimee K. Bryant are much loved performers who have appeared on ILLUSION stages for many years, in many shows, and in many events.

Stories of discovery and resilience
Bonnie and Michael were active during the transformative late '60s and early '70s, participating in social and political movements such as the Civil Rights Movement, anti-Vietnam War protests, Women’s Rights Movement, Sexual Experimentation, and Gay Rights. They witnessed revolutionary theater across the United States, France, England, and Germany. Inspired by this, they founded ILLUSION THEATER, aiming to create plays that bring to light illusions, myths, and realities, fostering personal and social change. Their work invites audiences to question long-held beliefs and imagine new realities.
