Boston Conservatory at Berklee’s L.A. KCON Performance Illustrates Why the School Is a Standout for Commercial Dance Training

The summer went by very quickly, but it was well worth it. Cathy Young asked me to do this project along with Mila Thigpen, Tommy Neblett and Boston Conservatory and it was the perfect time as I was missing the commercial industry. I am grateful to Bates Dance Festival for building these longtime relationships in this industry. Although the Crypto Center is a major venue and a large project to get on its feet, mentoring is always the focus. I am extremely proud of these young dancers that brought an A-level of professionalism to the stage. For the many young dancers that ask if they should choose one. Doing concert dance and commercial dance is possible and I am proud to continue to navigate through both performing worlds.

Never met him, never danced for him, never saw him walk down a hallway or through a studio window. Somehow last week I had ten meals, a beach trip, and car trips with jokes full of life, art, and politics in the company of Donald Byrd. Everything happens for a reason. I think someone up above knew I needed to talk to him. And his last words to me were
“Only the good artists are brave.”
Thank you Donald Byrd… till our next road trip.

I have two dancers in my cast that I am especially proud of.

Full circle of training, artistry and support. We can make a difference in artists lives. Thank You to my creative team, Lighting Designer Brandon Stirling Baker and Costume Designer Olivia Mason for their finishing touches. Thank you to Tara Keating for your eye and expertise. Foremost Poets you are a musical genius. This evening I share the stage with the incredible Annabelle Lopez Ochoa and veteran Matthew Neenan.

“The work was inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh who was an influential spiritual advisor. Really the question is, can we exist harmoniously? And that became the root of the work.” -Jennifer Archibald, choreographer

This week we're spending time with choreographer Jennifer Archibald to talk about her inspiration and creation process. Last month Jennifer spent two weeks in the studio creating and rehearsing with the dancers. See the finished product on stage at the Long Center April 1-3 in Her Stories.

This week we're spending time with Jennifer Archibald to talk about inspiration, movement style, and female leaders in the dance industry.

“I’ve always been attracted to that aspect of movement that embodies a lot of physicality and how I can attach that into a classical line.” –Jennifer Archibald, choreographer

Thank you, Nashville Scene, for selecting our performances at Ascend Amphitheater last May as the “Best Return to The Stage'' for the 2021 Best Of Nashville issue! This was a marvelous experience at an incredible venue, and performing for our audience again after so much time away was extraordinary. As Artistic Director Paul Vasterling shared with the Scene in May, “[we’re] entirely grateful...to be able to gather together safely to rehearse and create. And then, to share that energy with a live audience once again [was] quite emotional, and very inspiring.” Thank you to our patrons, supporters, and the Nashville community for making our return to the stage possible!
