| The Big Dance (a work in progress) is inspired by recent personal events that celebrates and questions life's big issues such as; losing a loved one, the need to move forward, honoring what's important, taking risks, and "living" in the moment. Section one reflects the strength of a community, (the interdependency and relationships) and incorporates the Cathedral space to present new choreographic challenges. Section two is a memorial to my mother who left a legacy of fine memories. Section three rushes into the present. It explores the notion of a nonstop society bombarded by sound, images, constant change, and activity. |
