I can’t believe I just performed with Reformation Dance, Cheyenne’s premiere contemporary ballet company, in “Star Tributes,” honoring the music of Star Wars composer, John Williams.
“Grateful” doesn’t begin to describe how I feel about Kathy Vreeland, the Founder/Artistic Director, for graciously inviting me to participate,
and the Company members for bringing me into their fold.
As Williams’ stirring music played, the dancers portrayed scenes of war.
Loss.
Hope.
Rebellion.
And Relief.
The audience got so involved in the production that some even came as Star Wars’ characters.
After the outpouring of all this emotion, the second act shifted gears with a tribute to the great 80’s band, Rush!
The combination of ballet and hard rock was fascinating.
I had the honor of appearing in the finale,
reuniting with my Dancing with the Stars of Cheyenne partner, Jonathan Hedger,
and then joining the cast onstage
before racing off to CBS to produce and anchor two shows.
I have to admit the timing was incredibly tight, but I am so thankful to have been a part of this production.
