Donterrio Anderson is a dynamic playwright, director, and visionary hailing from Monroe, Louisiana. With a passion for storytelling and a calling rooted deeply in faith, Donterrio has dedicated the last decade to using the stage as a platform for healing, inspiration, and transformation.His journey into theater began unexpectedly on October 11, 2014, with the debut of his very first stage play, Why Do You Go to Church? Despite having no formal training in the arts, Donterrio answered a divine calling and stepped out on faith. What started as a leap into the unknown turned into a sold-out show, drawing an audience of over 500 people. That night, he discovered not only his gift—but his purpose.The heart behind Donterrio’s work stems from a deeply personal place. At one of the lowest points in his life, he battled depression and suicidal thoughts. But it was in that darkness that God gave him a vision—a vision to use his pain as a testimony. Through laughter, powerful storytelling, and raw, relatable characters, Donterrio began creating stage plays that minister to people from all walks of life, especially those who have faced similar struggles. His mission is simple: to touch lives, bring hope, and glorify God through the performing arts.Since that first production, Donterrio has written and produced over 10 successful stage plays under his company, Donnie Productions LLC. His work is known for blending humor, heart, and faith, often centered around themes of redemption, resilience, and real-life experiences. Backed by a cast of 14 to 16 incredibly talented performers, each production is brought to life with passion, professionalism, and purpose.What began at a dining room table with his godmother and a trusted counselor has grown into a thriving creative movement. Donterrio’s ultimate dream is to take his productions all the way to Broadway—bringing authentic, faith-filled stories to the world stage.Through his work, Donterrio empowers individuals to discover their potential, build confidence, and find their voice. He believes that the arts are not just entertainment—they are a tool for transformation, especially in communities that need it most.
