So amidst the craziness that is this quarter, some little part of my brain is remembering that I will be performing in NYC on March 14th for the first (and perhaps only) time. This is part of the amazing Anna Sokolow Steps of Silence experience. Sadly, we are just doing an excerpted version of the piece, as the event–Hunter College’s Sharing the Legacy Festival–has a ten-minute limit. If you must see the whole piece, we’ll be performing it in Columbus in the May Dance Downtown performances.
And what brought this subject to mind now, you ask? Good question–last night I dreamed that the airlines lost my luggage and I was stuck trying to get ready right before curtain without any stage makeup, hair supplies, etc. At least it wasn’t the dream where I don’t know any of the steps…

Here is a good tip… we all should take everything that we need to use on stage with us in our carry on.
At least you aren’t having dreams about taking your clothes off early in the piece. Ooh that should get people excited to see the show!

Heh heh, yes, taking your clothes off too early in the piece would be problematic. (And I’m also planning to have crucial items in my carryon–it’s the sure way to prevent lost luggage, according to Murphy’s Law…)
But now I’m having dreams about vacationing in Hawaii–much better than bad performance dreams!
