In the Upstate of South Carolina, where JDew resides, he is known to most sports fans as either the on-court hype guy for Clemson University’s men’s and women’s basketball teams, or the Director of Fun and on-field emcee for the Greenville Drive, a minor-league affiliate of the Boston Red Sox from 2007 to 2016.

JDew also has a love for theatre, and has graced several South Carolina stages. He has appeared in several shows and galas like To Kill a Mockingbird, Dracula, The Piano Lesson, and a musical review show entitled “Motown Magic.”

After listening to Wilfred J. Walker, Sr.’s testimony, while being videographer during the interview in 2008, JDew realized that so many African American stories, legends, and triumphs weren’t being communicated to America’s younger generation.

After contemplating a “Black History” stage performance for about 18 months, “One Voice: A Black History Narrative” was born, and debuted at the Warehouse Theatre in Greenville, SC, in 2011. The show was so well received, that several local business requested to have the show come to their campuses for repeat performances for their team members.

JDew took “the show on the road,” and is excited to be able to offer performances on school campuses, corporate functions, churches, and special events and seminars.
