Hello Jane. Thanx for sending me this blog link. Its a great way for me to keep up with the dance world in Pgh. Even though I now have my masters degree in New Media this is the 1st blog I’ve been on! LOL. I’ve been overseas in Budapest, Hungary with Susan Stroman directing the international debut of CONTACT there. I move on next to the Asolo Rep in Sarasota, Florida, Seoul, Korea and Lodz Poland for companies. I will also just been picked and signed on to direct the revival of the June Havoc play Marathon 33 here in New York City, so all those years back with my production of MARATHONS for the Physical Theater Project will come into handy. I also will have another round of workshops for the new musical I’ve created based on the life /work of Harlem Renasassance photographer Jame VanDerZee. Pgh composer Michael Moricz is the musical director and co composer with myself. Whew! I’ll be back in Pgh at some point in July /Aug so maybe we could meet up and chat.
Best
