    opportunity to express myself and doing something meaningful are my three main reasons to study performing arts. While almost every little girl finds it amusing to dance in front of the mirror in a new pink tutu, for me the art of movement was always a part of my day and became my steady companion. From the first time I put on my ballet shoes, dance has been my source of inspiration, self-expression and pure joy. It is not only everyday practice but a part of who I am and what I want to be. I…

    waltzing around the kitchen with his son, to his wife’s displeasure. The speaker uses a sound device such as onomatopoeia, to describe the father’s uncoordinated dance. In the text it stated, “We romped until the pans; Slid from the kitchen shelves.” Which was used to put emphasis on how loud or how bad of a ruckus it was. Waltzing is a type of dance in which the dancers revolve in perpetual circles. But waltz is a symbol for the relationship between the father and son. “Such waltzing…

    It all started when I was nearly eight years old, the year of 2009. I had been doing gymnastics since I was two years old and I loved it. The practices, coaches, teammates, getting ready for the big weekend, and mostly leaving all the hard work on the floor. While at practice, I found myself watching the cheerleaders instead of focusing on my gymnastics. I loved watching the girls be thrown into the air and flip at the same time and I knew I wanted to try it and be the best one out there. My gym…

The performance showcased students who weren’t not necessarily even studying dance. I found that extremely surprising that Lipscomb even offered a program that allowed dancers to get involved. By doing sol, the talent was very diverse and defiantly…

    “Freeing Forgiveness” was a dance that Joy Scott choreographed. During Joy Scott’s practice we struggled with quite a few things, such as, changing music, choreography, and what the dance was about. Our rehearsals were on Thursdays at 5:00pm and I was able to attend all practices that we had. During our first rehearsal, we started out using music that Joy found that was very simple and elegant. She had the idea of Blade Boulware playing the piano during the first minute of our dance and then…

    The set is clean and empty; it is a blank canvas. There are plain colours on stage, whether it be just a white light, or a light blue. There is someone on stage. They are not female; nor are they male. They just are. This is THE CHARACTER. THE CHARACTER is in a limbo of sorts. THE CHARACTER did not mean to pass away -- they did not want to pass away. The mystery to the audience, however, is how did THE CHARACTER pass away. All we know, as the audience, is that the character is not ready to come…

    had them. I imitated countless Michael Jackson dance steps. Then I continued rehearsing and training for my performances more than anything in my life. At daybreak I cavorted on the dead grassy schoolyard by myself because nobody played with me or appeared to appreciate what I did… at least that’s what I originally assumed. Droves of kids accosted me and said shit like, “What the hell are you doing?” I replied, “I’m just practicing so I can dance like Michael Jackson.” Some sprogs expressed…
