Cynthia Gregory Coaching Project

Essential to the survival of the “art” in dance - as a performing art form, is coaching.  The “magic” and memorable performances in theater in many ways, is the result of coaching.

Dance-Sez: Dialogues with Dancers on Dance

Being developed  with former Pointe Magazine Editor Virginia Johnson, is an educational, yet scripted, performance-based event series.  An evening will take the audience on a journey into the life and work of a prominent artist in the field of dance, focus on a particular theme or topic, and provide a unique insight into the dancer’s process from a variety of cross-genre perspectives. 

Choreography Project

Creating new work is essential to further the art of ballet, as well as other forms of contemporary dance.  Although new workshops are springing up across the nation, we need more of them.  Works are commissioned at great cost and discourages risk taking, thus stifling the creative process –a process with which our art form is based on. 

Co-producing Ballets

The objective is to seek a co-production with other ballet companies, or non-profit entity.  One project includes and existing ballet: The Bell Witch: An American Haunting. This ghost-love story is the most documented supernatural phenomenon in American history, with original music by Conni Ellisor, and features a novel element of 3-D scenic design.  We are gathering works to collaborate on with dance companies, or venues.
