in a much-belated post: we are FUNDED! the jaema joy dance campaign on kickstarter.com was successful. our goals have been met!
better yet, the ball is already rolling. last saturday, we presented the work in its latest form at Steps on Broadway for an informal showing. despite the snowstorm (yes. slushy nasty snowstorm.), Halloween, and subway trouble, there was a small and mighty audience of wonderful souls willing to give us some feedback - on the dancing, on the story, on the props, on everything!
i could not be more grateful for how it turned out!
there's always a nervewracking feeling when you put something in front of an audience for the first time (or, in this case, not for the first time, but for a new audience in a new city with new dancers....) because you're so in it that you don't even know if your basic thought behind the work is going to come through. i still am always pleasantly surprised when people don't get up and leave during the show. so imagine my delight when people have insightful strong opinions about what they have just seen... and even some things they LIKED. incredible!
look forward to more updates soon about the show in the spring. feeling inspired and ready to share more with all of you!
thank you as always. overwhelmed by the support and ever grateful.
love!
