At the beginning of this year, I promised myself I’d work to get the choreography ideas out of my head and into action. This choreography has been with me since I moved to New York almost four years ago, so it only made sense to start here. I started dancing to this song in 2019 when I felt like I had no idea where I belonged in this big, new city. It was my way of creating a feeling of home- the nostalgic warmth in Anais Mitchell’s music felt so comforting to me in a city that can feel so unflinching. Fast forward to March 2020, I was teaching that first draft to some cast-mates during our run of Guys and Dolls at the Fireside when the Broadway shutdown was announced. At the time, we had no idea what the shutdown would mean for our little show in Wisconsin, which felt so far away from New York City. But through the stress and the worry, we continued to dance. Of course, our show ended up closing a month early. From that moment on, this music and movement has always felt like a sort of mile marker for the beginning of the pandemic to me. A year later, I was teaching dance at my former high school during the height of the pandemic with only whisperings of a vaccine. And while I hated the taped out lines on the floor restricting dancers to little 6 feet boxes and missed seeing a dancer’s smile underneath their mask, it felt so good to dance during a time when theatre was halted all across the country. I made a “COVID safe” draft of this choreo, swapping phrases that moved across the full floor for moments of breath and stillness. Even masked, I saw the warmth of “home” shine through my students’ eyes. Nearly four years later, the pandemic no longer a state of emergency and theatre inching back all across the country, “they danced” again. This final version is a blend of the New York and COVID drafts. To me, it feels like a reunion. I’m still exploring what home feels like, but now surrounded by friends from all the various chapters of my life, home feels not too far away.
