ISLAND Delays Opening!

Due to Hurricane Sandy, the show that I'm choreographing, The Island of No Tomorrows, has to delay its opening. We were going to open this Friday, but will now open Thursday 11/8- which is also our benefit performance! We will hopefully get back into the theatre tomorrow to continue tech week. We are all super grateful to be safe and sheltered so a delayed opening is a small price to pay. Looking forward to seeing you at the show!

We're on Playbill.com!

Here's an article about the show I'm choreographing!

Dancing In Times Square!

Today, at 5am, 4 other dancers and myself filmed a Rockette style dance in the middle of Times Square, right in front of the Marriot!! I choreographed this piece for a new film. I cannot wait to see the finished product and share it with you! Here's a picture of me (right) and 2 of my amazing, beautiful dancers Chloe Hurst (left) and Alexis Sweeney (center- who is also my dance captain in The Island of No Tomorrows):

Update: ISLAND OF NO TOMORROWS

Rehearsals have been going super well for this new piece! The cast is so talented and the creative team is amazing- I'm so excited for our opening on November 2nd!

If you have a few minutes to spare, please watch our Indiegogo Campaign video. A lot of the team is on it and they talk about how important it is to support women in theatre:

DARE TO BEHOLD THIS EROTIC QUIXOTIC MUSICAL FANTASIA!

THE ISLAND OF NO TOMORROWS by Fengar Gael is not your traditional musical. The infant Esperanza's mother dies in childbirth, and Esperanza is given an artificial heart but not expected to live. Her father, Don Hilardo, sequesters Esperanza at Villa Leche, his ideal of heaven on earth, filled with a bevy of voluptuous nursing mothers to care for her until the dreaded day arrives. But Esperanza defies the odds in this madcap exploration of sexual subjugation, political oppression, and the challenges of parenting in the electronic age.
