Video above is from the re-construction of What Practice Makes earlier this summer. The 4 dancers of Peter Stathas Dance did a beautiful job, learning the 14-minute dance in just a few days. Typically, I don't re-visit old dances, preferring to just start a new one. But this was a pleasure, and a chance to make it a bit more legible. We'll return to it later this fall, and present it in an open showing on November 6th, TBA.

Six very different films, screenings on 3 continents. For some of them, I even received a screening fee - not the US ones, you might guess.
Including the world premiere of Blow Me Down - finally!
So why don't I take more satisfaction?
You know me by now. The reward is in the making of the next project, not the laurels for the previous ones. And the next one doesn't start production till October. More to come.
