"You Won't Forget About Me but I May First"
“You Won’t Forget About Me, but I May First” tells the story of a performer stuck in the idea of repetition and feeling lost in something that once brought her so much joy. The piece is done in two settings starting in the dressing room where the performer is hanging onto the idea of feeling stuck and not wanting to acknowledge what she is truly feeling. She wants to put on a show for people but needs to spend time reminding herself what this art truly brings to her. Once leaving the dressing room the performer enters the stage to try to find that joy she once had. Throughout the performance, she is reminded of what she loves about dance and truly learns what it means to be on this rollercoaster which is the art of performing. This story is about finding love in something that has become a job but remembering why you started it in the first place. This is a piece meant to show the world that you can refine your love and passion for something, it might just take you a minute to remind yourself why you started in the first place.

"We've Dreamed of This Moment"
The moment you’re staring into yourself in the mirror, remembering those few counts of eight, checking in with your fellow performers, or putting on the last-minute makeup and costume touches before the light calls you onstage. We’ve Dreamed of This Moment shares the authentic feeling of the performance and the limitless possibilities of what could happen on the stage. Inspired by the aesthetic of a retro movie set, the piece to the audience is perceived as a movie and the performers are acting as a group of women that are getting ready to act for a live audience, but within the means of the show. Defined by the idea of the performance, We’ve Dreamed of This Moment breaks the barrier between the rehearsal and stage process and leaves us with the question: is everything we do a performance?
