Title	Project Description
Liminality	Liminality is inspired by reimagining what Odette may have experienced upon plunging to her death in the lake from the classical ballet “Swan Lake”. It is a moment of suspended reality and a story of disenchantment, self-discovery and transformation. We see this story as a metaphor for what many ballet dancers experience upon the imminent journey of their retirement from professional careers. On stage there is always a happy ending. For example, Seigfried in “Swan Lake” immediately realizes his mistake in being seduced by another woman, seeks forgiveness from Odette, and follows her off the cliff to his death so they can be reunited in the afterlife. But what is the reality for the dancers who play these characters? When the fairytale is over, what happens next? The dancer and choreographer of Liminality, Annali Rose, is searching to answer that question for herself. She wanted to begin this journey in the only place she had felt inspired to play with choreography in her past—underwater. The water is symbolic of the feeling of drowning and the death of her identity as a professional dancer. But it also envelops her, providing safety, support, and the spark of joy that is the magical seed of regeneration. The cinematography was captured at the Madison Blue Spring State Park in Lee County Florida during January 2020. ~Abbreviated from the program note by Jenni Petuch
Hair, Hemlines & Husbands: Women in US Politics	6 choreographers and 6 composers created a dance concert inspired by the dynamics and hardships of women in politics. This project was loosely based on the research of Dr. Barbara Palmer. The show featured 1872 presidential candidate, Victoria Woodhull; first congresswoman, Jeannette Rankin; first African-American congresswoman, Shirley Chisholm; first congresswoman from Colorado, Pat Schroeder; first female Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi; and then-current U.S. presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton.
A Warrior’s Journey	11 choreographers and 11 composers created a dance concert based research by Dr. Carol Gregory, to analyze how the United State Marine Corps operates, and how it is currently affecting peoples lives. Dr. Gregory shared her research from two years of evaluating workplace violence prevention for the U.S.M.C. The result was “The Warriors’ Journey,” a work featuring abstracted interpretations of a Marine’s experiences on and off battlefield, and after returning home.
