My Theatre/Actor Journey + Photoshoot with Designer Sophia Guajardo and Photographer Taylor Mae

August 20, 2025 by Quentin Marcellis

My theatre Journey started when I was in Elementary School at Academy Central around the 5th grade and taking after school performing Arts classes at Central Highschool. I was rehearsing to be in a play about the American classical cartoon Peanuts: ‘Charlie Brown’ playing ‘Franklin Armstrong’ who was the first black character in Charles M. Schulz's ‘Peanuts’ comic strip. I was excited to portray this character on stage, especially one that looked like me. I remember my first theatre teacher Mrs. Ardelle I believe was her name, who trained me and the other cast who were in Middle Schools and Elementary schools around the city in dance, singing, and acting. After about a month of rehearsing I was pulled out of the class by my mother for bad grades, which broke my heart as a kid. Theatre was the first place I felt seem, felt heard, and where I felt like I belonged. I was also in my local Church plays for Easter, and Christmas, but being on stage felt different.

It wasn’t until I was in Middle School at Thoreau Demonstration Academy, that I got back into theatre by taking a drama class, and my favorite teacher instantly became Mr. Lavah who we nicknamed ‘Flava Lavah.’ The first play I was in was in the 6th grade and I played ‘Sandy the Dog’ in the theatre play ‘Annie.’ It required me to dress up in a dog costume and howl the song ‘Tomorrow’ with the actress that plays Annie. Pretty hilarious right? Lol But what was so dope is that as a young kid I was willing to be open minded, and not judge the role without looking at it negatively which landed me lead roles, and more speaking parts in 7th, and 8th grade.

At Union High-school I wasn’t in theatre, but my mother put me into acting classes at John Casablancas acting, and modeling school. After high school I moved to D.C, and eventually New York to pursue my modeling career for about 4 years. I remember passing by Broadway theatres and shows all the time but never having in interest in theatre. When I moved back to my hometown Tulsa, Oklahoma I signed with the Linda Layman Agency and from there I landed my first commercial with Alabama Credit Union, was a stand in for actor ‘Ricky Whittle’ for a TV called ‘American Gods’, a background extra in a movie called ‘Starbright’, a bodyguard in movie called ‘Jurassic Games’, and featured in two Hard Rock Casino commercials all in Oklahoma, and not New York, or L.A. Helping me get my first acting credit with (IMDB) an online database of information related to films, television series, podcasts, home videos, video games, and streaming content online.

I got back in Theatre in the year 2024 when I was asked to step in for someone who had dropped out of their role as one of the ‘Drifters’ in the play ‘Beautiful the Carol King Musical’ produced by ‘Theatre Tulsa’ in 2003. Jumping back into theatre my heart was racing, wondering if I had what it takes to fulfill the role, but then I remembered all of my experiencing performing my own original music from my two mixtapes ‘Days In The Midwest’ and ‘On A Journey’ and promoting my single ‘Carefree Black Boy’ led up to this moment. I took the role and met so many amazing people including choreographers, and vocal coaches and performed s solo number titled ‘Up On the Roof.’ The next play I would be in was in 2024 with ‘American Theatre Company’ a dram/comedy titled ‘Under The Skin’ where I played two characters at the same time Hector/Jarrel. Then in 2025, based on my previous theatre experience I was asked to audition for another play produced by Theatre North titled ‘Chicken & Biscuits’ a black family comedy. Someone at the ‘Tulsa Performing Arts Center’ saw my performance and asked me If I would be interested in their third self-Produced show in ‘Rag Time’ the musical in the Harlem Ensemble. I don’t know where my acting, and theatre experience will take me in the next 10 years, but I hope it continues to surprise me. I definitely want to get more into film. My dream is to be a fulltime artist in film, music, and modeling.

After an incredible run, we’re down to the last weekend of performances at the Tulsa Performing Arts Center. Don’t miss your chance to experience this moving story of justice, love, and the heartbeat of America told through music.

The Year Of Transformation

July 20, 2025 by Quentin Marcellis

A Mid-Year Reflection From the Journey

I’m On A Journey—literally and spiritually.
We’ve hit the halfway mark of 2025, and to say this year has been anything less than a whirlwind of growth, losses, lessons, and divine breakthroughs would be an understatement. Transformation doesn’t come pretty—it comes with cracked mirrors, unexpected solitude, and days when you’re just trying to remember who you are.

As a healer, I’ve come to understand something deeply humbling:
The healers need healing too.
I’m not writing this from some mountaintop of perfection. I’m writing this from the middle of my own transformation—still healing, still hurting, still rising.

But what’s changed is this:
I’m no longer hiding the parts of me that feel unfinished.

🔓 Stepping Out of the Spiritual Closet

For a long time, I sat on my gifts—afraid to be seen fully. Afraid my brokenness disqualified me. But Queology was never meant to be perfect. It was meant to be real.

So I’m reclaiming my voice. And I’m finally ready to share what’s always been inside me:
✨ Tarot
🧘🏾 Meditation + Yoga
🌌 Astrology + Numerology
📿 Words of wisdom, downloads, & spiritual storytelling

I’ll be sharing more on my YouTube, blog, and social media—offering guidance, tools, and real conversations about the Universe, energy, shadow work, self-love, and this beautifully chaotic thing we call life.

🌱 Where I Am Now

This isn’t a “look how far I’ve come” post.
This is a “look how far I’m willing to go” post.
And if you're on a similar path—messy, magical, and in motion—then this space is for you.

Welcome back to Queology.net
We’re just getting started.
Make the Universe bend for you.

'Mufasa: The Lion King' Movie Review + The Impact On Black Culture

January 14, 2025 by Quentin Marcellis

As an actor I have had the privilege of being a bodyguard in the movie ‘Jurassic Games’ (2018), an extra/stand in for Actor ‘Ricky Whittle’ in the TV Show ‘American God’s’, and various commercials work, and theater performances which has earned me an IMDB credit. Movies/TV Shows, and Entertainment have played a huge role in my life since childhood. The stories, the characters, and the Worlds (sci/fi, fantasy, horror, fiction, animation) have captivated my imagination, and have influenced my creativity as an artist, which is why I am so excited about starting something new on my website. I will be reviewing movies, and TV shows, and giving my critical opinion, as well as a breakdown of the message, and theme’s I took away from it. The first movie up is ‘Mufasa: The Lion King.’ A sequel to the live of ‘The Lion King’ an adaption based directly on the original animated classic from 1994.

Many of us millennials who were born between the years of 1990-1999 remember that a huge part of our childhood was the era of Disney known as ‘The Renaissance era.’ The period was marked by a return to critically successful animated films such as the classics ‘Alladin’, ‘The Little Mermaid’, ‘Beauty and The Beast’, Hercules, Pocahontas, and ‘The Lion King.’

The original Disney animated feature follows the adventures in Africa of the young lion Simba, the heir of his father, Mufasa (played by legendary actor James Earl Jones). Simba's wicked uncle, Scar, plots to take over Mufasa's throne by luring the father, and son, into a stampede of wildebeests. But Simba escapes, and only Mufasa is killed. Simba returns as an adult to take back his homeland from Scar with the help of his friends Timon (a Meerkat), and Pumbaa (a warthog). The original ‘Lion King’ is most notably remembered by its incredible songs, and music such as ‘I Just Cant Wait To Be King’ and ‘Can You Feel the Love Tonight’ by Elton John. Followed by memorable merchandise, nostalgic kids bed sheets, and video games. The live action version was released in 2019 and stared music artist Beyoncé, and Childish Gambino who played Simba, and Nala (Simba’s childhood best friend, and love interest).

‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ the direct live action prequel was released December 20th, 2024. I took my cousins Jasmyne (25) and Marcel (10) to see the new movie and all of the nostalgia came rushing back, reminding me how much I have loved Disney movies since childhood. Lost and alone, orphaned cub Mufasa (Simba’s Dad) meets a sympathetic lion named Taka (Scar), the heir to a royal bloodline. The chance meeting sets in motion an expansive journey 🐫of an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destinies. This movie stars two rising black male lead actors who are taking Hollywood by storm, Aaron Pierre (Mufasa), and Kelvin Harris Jr. (Take) What I loved most about the movie is the nostalgia factor, and getting a back story of the relationship between Scar, and Mufasa as we know them from the animated classic. It was refreshing to see the characters as young innocent Lion cubs, before they became enemies. A reminder that every villain has a backstory, and a reason why they became who they are.

The music in ‘Mufasa: Lion King’ was also good, and one of my favorite songs was ‘I Always Wanted A Brother’ the new ‘I Just Cant Wait To Be King.’ Growing up in a single parent family, with no siblings, the soundtrack really spoke to my soul growing up as an only child. The movie also featuring a returning Beyoncé (Nala), and her daughter Blue Ivy as lion cub Kiara.

I took my cousins to see the movie for the ‘New Years’ Holiday at our local movie theater ‘AMC Southroads 20’ (4923 41st St, Tulsa Ok 74135) We purchased the collectible popcorn bucket, cup, and plush for the movie. I also brought with me a painting of Simba’s son ‘Kion’ that was given to me for free by a local artist in Oklahoma City at an event where I was a keynote speaker.

The ‘Lion King’ Disney franchise seems to have made a lasting impact on black culture. I believe this is due to the setting of the story taking place in Africa, and the themes of African royalty, family dynamics, and a thirst for the African American audience to get back in touch with our African roots. Ask most black people what their favorite Disney movie is, and most people will tell you it’s Lion King. Most of us 90’s baby’s remember our McDonalds Happy Meal toys, or bed sheets, and plush merchandise for the movie which has left a lasting impression on our inner child.

If there is one thing I’ve learned as an adult at 33, it’s that the most powerful muse of all is our own inner child!

‘On A Journey’ 🐫 Is Available Now On All Streaming Platforms

September 09, 2024 by Quentin Marcellis

Fun fact : Sometimes I think I have a manager, and most times it’s just me. 🌵Sometimes my shows have 50+ people, and sometimes 5 people. Sometimes I have the loudest fans, and sometimes the people I thought would be my biggest supporters are my quietest enemies. 🦗Sometimes my support comes from complete strangers, and sometimes it comes from people I never expected it to come from. Sometimes I think I’m a star✨, and sometimes I want to quit! Sometimes I am celebrated, and sometimes I dont feel visible. Sometimes I am the most confident person🦋, and sometimes the demons in my head win.

I’ve been making music independently since 2015, and sometimes I dont know where this journey 🏜️ is leading me since I don’t see everything fully manifested or have everything figured out, but I hope the Universe is leading me to where I’m meant to be! 🐫

I’m ‘On A Journey’ please pray for me! My new single ‘#OnAJourney’ is out NOW on  iTunes Spotify TIDAL and all streaming platforms!✨

“Fall in love with taking care of yourself. Fall in love with the path of deep healing. 🌵Fall in love with becoming the best version of yourself, but with patience, with compassion, and respect to your own journey.” ✨

My seventh single #OnAJourney🐫 from my second mixtape ‘On A Journey’🏜️ is available on Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, and all streaming platforms!
