To learn more about Deon Q. Sanders check out the interview below. Also don't forget to follow her on social media for a daily dose of Inspiration.


What inspired you to become an actor?

I've always wanted to perform on stage either as an actor or singer.  I was inspired just from the feeling I had when I was able to be expressive onstage.  Of course seeing actors and singers on television was inspiring, but I loved how it made me feel.



What advice can you give to inspiring actors?

Decide what area you want to perform in; stage (general or musicals) or film. Cultivate your craft, invest in your craft with training, believe in your craft and own your craft.





What actor you admire the most?

Past: Lena Horne, she set the stage for African American actors, she was full of style,  determination and class

Present:  Phylicia Rashard:  Often said to look like her, I love her delivery in everything she has done.  Her on stage and off stage spirit says classy, it demands respect.


What mistake did you make as an actor that you would never make again?

The biggest mistake that I made as an actor would have to be not committing and preparing for my roles.



What is your favorite city to perform in and why?

I've only performed in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area..  I love the fact that my close family and friends are able to come and support me.


If you could grace any stage what would it be and why?

 Any stage in NYC on Broadway, on or off Broadway is the ultimate dream of an actor.  I makes you feel like you have "arrived.  It's also a great look on your resume'.




If you could perform with any celebrity who would it be and why?

Male:I would love to sing with Eric Benet.  I love the tone of his voice and I know our collaboration together would be great.


Female: I would love to sing with Ledisi.  She gives me chills when she sings.  She is very expressive and even as a R&B singer, her classical training is clear when she sings.  Although I haven't had the extensive training as she has, I would love to sing with her because she would appreciate the trained voice, as well as the "gifted" voice and people would accept it.


 Tell us about your next performance.

My next performance will take place on February 26 & 27, 2016 at the GG’s Theater located in side of Valley View Mall. The address is 13331 Preston Rd, Dallas Texas. I will be performing “The Vagina Monologues” alongside some amazing people. For ticket information please  Call 214-653-7583.
