Dancing Dolls

For the past month, I’ve sacrificed my social life (and most of my work life) in the name of Choreography. This was technically the first time I’ve choreographed a show (I’ve done bits and pieces for shows before, but nothing like this). It was a great experiment and it was *super* fun to be dancing and using the body as a tool for acting and expression. Cheeky Monkey Theater will definitely be including more dance elements in our shows in the future (spoiler alert!)
Here are some pictures from the China Doll opening last night (Paul was a very happy camper, as you can tell in this picture with Lu Tian (aka: Yazi)). I had waaaay too much champagne and joined the girls up on one of the stages in my tiny red Armani dress (and there were a ton of photographers there to record this).
Speaking of photographers, a quick shout-out to the wonderful VIC who took these pictures for us
We’re still having to do lots of rehearsals to perfect the current dances, and I’ve just been told to arrange some pieces for the Lounge area as well, so lots of things to keep me uber-busy in the future. However, I *am* going to make more of a point to write more blog posts in this same uber-busy future (I’m not sure how successful this will be, but hey, its worth the try!)
