Associate Artistic Director Michael Mizerany shares what it is like once the curtains have closed on a show—and what he does with the rest of his time.
What was the best part of seeing your choreography on stage?
Seeing WAYWARD GLANCES come together as a dance piece, as an idea. Also, seeing the audience react the way I wanted them to react—you never know how the audience will respond to a dance piece!
What do you like most about SURFACE TENSION being over?
I don’t have to stress anymore about my first time premiering a work with Malashock Dance! And I don’t have to worry about compartmentalizing. It was hard to dance in two pieces plus be the choreographer for another.
What do you like least about SURFACE TENSION being over?
Now I have to go back to the day-to-day work of running the company: booking tour dates, talking with presenters, making sure the information on our website is up to date.
What is going on now that SURFACE TENSION has ended?
Our performance for Classics 4 Kids is coming up in just three weeks—It’s never over! I am also back to the administrative side of my job.
