Just around the corner

Update #2 · May 4, 2012 · comment

Dear all,

I am really feeling the kickstarter love this week. We have reached 60% of our goal with 10 days to go.

The dancers arrive in just a few days, and in addition to rehearsing, performing, workshops, and lecture demonstrations - we also plan to hike in the redwoods, kayak in Monterey Bay, and introduce them to our fabulous friends and community in California.

Our t-shirts are getting printed this week. I posted the image by Kristina Paabus last time. These are benefits at the $250 level, and a limited amount will be for sale at our performances.

Composer Jonathan Segel is continuing to work on the music, and each iteration is better than the last. I am posting a photo of one of Pille Kose's new costumes. I won't see them in person till the dancers arrive Tuesday.

We start rehearsing on Thursday and will have one week till our first performances in Santa Cruz. I am also rehearsing with local dancers who will perform catch-as-catch-can from 2006. They are doing a great job with the movement and I am excited to see this dance remounted again.

We still need to raise $1200 - so spread the word if you can, and THANKS AGAIN!

Best,

Cid
