Why did you choose the various mediums for ‘The Foundation et cetera; spoken word, dance, dialog, etc.

Answer: As traditional storytellers, we generally use more then one - we use song, poetry, dance, music to tell one story. Life does not happen in a ‘linier’ way, niether does my storytelling.

Did you feel it was risky to introduce text/dialog, theater work to a ‘dance’ audience.

Answer: Yes, but this work is about taking risk - It is unatural to fit into a particular mold and/or set of expectations. Risk is interesting. Using words as well as dance to complete the stories is simply how my brain works.
