The week culminated in our studio dress on Friday. It's going to be a great concert, filled with variety, surprises, lots of beautiful dancing and choreography, and live music!

We are getting close to the performance. The pieces are ready. We are working on little details and moments in Love Songs and Love Letter. The men's duet is getting very close to performance quality each time we run it. And Nick has almost finished choreographing. Now all that remains is the last duet for Mariel and Brandon.

Happy Valentine's Day! The concert is developing nicely. The dancers are becoming more assured in their steps and the shapes of the pieces are becoming more well defined. I watched some of Nick's rehearsal on Friday, and his piece is also progressing very well. He has captured the "separation" from his lovers in quite a wonderful way. It will be interesting to see how he develops both the attraction between them and the tension which keeps them apart.

The highlight of the week was the donor appreciation event at the IRT Cabaret on Wednesday evening where the dancers told stories of how they came to be in Indianapolis and part of Dance Kaleidoscope. I also asked them to share a "secret" that no one else knew about them. This was a fun way to get to know each of them a little better.

For the past two weeks we have been busy rehearsing for the next concert Love is... We have two guest choreographers, Cynthia Pratt and Nick Owens, so the rehearsal slots have to be shared equally between them and myself. I am contributing a revival of Love Songs and the Indiana premiere of a male-male duet called For Jose which I created in 2001 in memory of my dear friend Jose Aznarez who had passed away the preceding Fall due to complications from Aids.
