THE TYLER PERRY STORY Everyone, including his own family, thought he was weird because he spent so much time alone in his room during his childhood. It was then that Tyler Perry first started using his imagination to change reality. He learned to go within to escape the trauma of physical abuse. In his mind, he could create different characters and travel to different places. Perry remembers how he used to go within to imagine a better life – one filled with wealth and stylish mansions. The ability to go within to contact his spiritual self and use his creativity is what has helped to make him the great playwright that he is today. That same ability has helped him to achieve the life of abundance that he dreamed of as a child. The vivid imagination that he developed as a child is what Perry uses to develop characters and plot story lines that have captured the hearts and minds of thousands of theater-goers all over the country. A writer, producer, director and actor, with the top five plays in the last few years, it is easy to see why he has been referred to as the busiest man in black theater. A New Orleans native, Perry was the class clown in school who loved to make people laugh. After graduating, he started working with his father in the architecture field where he learned carpentry. He knew that carpentry was not his life’s work and continued his practice of going within to find answers. Perry began writing a series of letters when he was about 22 years old that later sealed the course of his career. Through writing he was trying to find a catharsis for his own childhood pain.
