Directing My Dancers/Directing Myself

Posted Thursday, July 14, 2011 - 12:45pm

Thanks to The Pew Center of Arts & Heritage through Dance Advance, Nichole will be engaging in a year-long process of choreographic research with Wendy Houstoun (formerly of DV8) acting as a mentor. The process includes a visit to London as well as rehearsals in Philadelphia with a group of dancers. In order to share this experience with NCDC’s audiences, Nichole will be keeping a blog ﬁlled with thoughts, musing, pictures, and videos about the process.
