We can’t believe that its already our final program of the 2012-2013 Season! While we feel like the year has just flown by, many of us have been anxiously awaiting the opening of Program IV: Broadway and Ballet — especially our dancers who can’t wait to get onstage. Find out why!
Emily Bromberg, Corps de Ballet, on Program IV: Broadway and Ballet – I’ve been looking forward to Program IV since last July [2012] when we started rehearsing for both ballets! I was overjoyed when I saw that I would be learning the “mauve” girl in Dances at a Gathering. For me, this part has a lot of meaning. From what I understand, her character is portrayed as a bit internal and full of thought. Finding my own way of portraying this has been my favorite part of the rehearsal process because everyday I get to go into the studio and experiment with how I want to feel, while dancing each movement. This experimentation along with the personal molding of each of the difficult, but liberating steps is such a fulfilling process. I couldn’t look more forward to performing such a role! Slaughter on Tenth Avenue is so much fun to perform with the audience! We use their energy, applause and reactions to fuel our every step! I’m happy to get the chance to be a part of it!
