Today I got to meet all the Choreographers for the first time, we're a really varied bunch of people, which is great! We also meet Ya-Chin our co-ordinator and the lovely Miss Chou, Director of the Tsoying High School and this project. The choreographers are:-
Angela Blumberg/Germany
Claude Aymon/France
Julia Milsom/New Zealand
Chien-Chih Chang/Taiwan
Naim Syrazad/ Malaysia
Eddie Chun Hui Lin/Taiwan
and
Kuan-Ling Tsai/Taiwan
And they are all super lovely!

Picture of our 2 hours to fight over who gets who (so long as we could remember who was who?!)……….it was no easy feat, but surprisingly it was pretty civilised! I think we all got who we wanted, even if I still only remember them by their numbers “red 4, blue 13, yellow 8, 9 and 10 you’re with Zaimon”.
I think tomorrow I might get to actually know my 9 dancers a bit better.
and you forgot to talk about this dancer B16 that you really like and that you did really want to have .. but just didn't exist !
ReplyDeleteHaha that's right! we had 15 dancers in 4 colour coordinated groups, red 1-15, green 1-15 and so on. For some reason, when we got back to the office to barter and deal for our dancers with eachother, I had Blue 16 (male) on my list????
ReplyDeleteWhich worked out well cause no one else wanted him, his name must have ToM.....
