Silence 2011

"I meant to send this yesterday.  My 8 year old granddaughter Amirah was so touched by the Song of Silence she had tears in her eyes.
I did not think a ballet with no music could be as powerful as it was. I felt and heard music through the dancers and was deeply moved by it all.
Thank You so much for the opportunity to experience this art form."

' SONG  OF SILENCE'        Premiere Cast ..... November 5, 2011

The dancer is the very essence of dance.
Yes, there is the music.
Yes, there are the costumes,
Yes, there is a choreographer.
Yes, there are so many elements that make up a dance
But the heart. soul and breathe of life
Is the dancer.

To dance is to reach within
And release one's soul out into the eyes of those
Who have come to watch
Is to speak clearly the essence of who we are
Through the dance

I will forever be grateful to these dancers
That during one season of time
We came together - laughed, searched, struggled
And finally created
Song Of Silence.

These moments of original creation
Are rare, precious
A gift to be rememebered forever

My deepest thanks to:
( Jennifer, Erin, Hannah, Sophia, Margaret
Rebecca, Celesta, Harper, Berea, Sophia,
Anna, Nik, Lily, Oliva-Rose )
