The official start of summer reminded us of the gloriously beautiful day we experienced while performing as part of Prelude 2016: an event in support of creating Louisville’s own Waterfront Botanical Gardens. What an amazing setting for choreography by two of our Company Dancers, Sanjay Saverimuttu and Ryan Stokes, performed to live music by two of Louisville’s favorites, Teddy Abrams and Ben Sollee.
