One week until the curtain goes up!

Posted By myron on October 9, 2009

The last week of rehearsals are always amazing.  We move to the stage from the studio and I get to step back and see the dances from a distance. The set, lights and costumes all added on and then…… it hits you that the show and the dances you made up are what is going to be seen by the audience in a few days.  Too late now to make any major changes…..polish them up, pay attention to detail but that’s about all you can do now. So exciting actually for me.  The first day on stage is like Christmas. Opening a present. Keep in mind that we don’t always love every present we get and I don’t always love every show, at first anyway. Sometimes the dances that make me the most nervous that first day are the ones I love the most after the final work is done. All this to say…I am so excited for Pas de Quatre!  I think it’s going to be surprising, funny, intriguing and beautiful.  The dancers look so beautiful. The costumes are very sparkly and you know how much I love that. The dances are created so specifically for the performers that this event will only happen this one time….I really hope you come and see it.
