This is us!

Here is the group that I will be working with over the next months. Here they are from Left to right:

I-Fen - is a marvellous dancer from Taiwan originaly but who has lived in Germany for many years. She and Peter and I are all either just turned 40 (her birthday was last week) or just about to be. She complains quite a lot about her slowing energy but actually I have rarely seen a dancer with more spunk and precision combined in the same body.

Casey - most of you know. She will be there as always, helping Helge make this show as good as it can be.

Helge - he is the leader and choreographer for this whole adventure. I danced with him 10 years ago at Montreal Danse. It is nice to see him shining in his role as director. He is good at keeping his head when all seems to be spiraling around him.

Khonan - is the baby of the group, he just turned 22! He is from France but came to Germany essentially to work with Helge about 6 months ago. He is homesick for France.

Nardi - is Albanian and left Albania over the mountains in the late 90's. He has been living mostly in Greece since then. He just jumped into the project to replace a dancer that had to pull out. He is now back in Greece trying to organize his paper work so that he can have permission to be here.

Peter - yay Peter. I am so glad to have someone here who apporaches the world in a somewhat similar way that I do not to mention that he makes very good soup!

You will see more of this gang as the weeks unfold.
