I spent a whirlwind March weekend auditioning and then setting a new dance on students at The Studio School in New Orleans, LA. NOLA Dance Project, their performance company, will premiere the work in their June gala. This new piece feels flirtatious and fun, with lots of whacky partnering and acrobatic skills. The kids dove in full-heartedly into safety and principles of weight bearing and weight sharing. AND, we managed to make some time to do a little improvising on film in a field (as pictured!).
