Great job Scarlet Mambo!

  • Showdance Choreography - Can I get a redo?

    scullystwin42
    25 Jan 2012 | 8:10 am
    Hi there! So I decided to spurge on a showdance this year, because I enjoyed the ones that were done at my studio's show last year so much. Found an awesome piece of music, signed up, got my choreo.... And I'm totally not a fan of what I got back. Not that it's bad, it's just not what I was expecting. Unfortunately, I realized that this situation was actually my own fault, as I didn't explicitly state my expectations to the choreographer or my pro - there had been some basic discussions about what I didn't want in it, but not what I thought the end result would turn out to be. It's not a…

  • Palm Springs Film Festival, With a Stop at Cabazon

    16 Jan 2012 | 9:39 pm
    I spent this past weekend with my dad in Palm Springs. He came down with a group and invited me to meet them, which, now that I’m in L.A., was pretty easy. It was the last weekend of the two week-long film festival there, so we caught a few movies. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to see either of the two dance films showing. One was Pina, by German filmmaker Wim Wenders, a biopic – in 3D – about Pina Bausch, which I know is coming to L.A. and which I definitely plan to see. The other was a Russian movie called My Father Baryshnikov, about a Soviet era student at a strict…

  • “The Suspect” Now in the Kindle Store

    10 Jan 2012 | 3:57 pm
    Hey Everyone — Just to let you know, my new short story, “The Suspect,” is available now in the Kindle store for 99 cents. I plan to put it up, in ebook form, in other online bookstores shortly. It’s my first real piece of crime fiction, which I’m really kind of psyched about. It’s a short story, and I think works as a short story, but will probably become part of a longer project I’m working on. Anyway, if you have a Kindle, I’d love to know what you think! If you’re a reviewer and have a Kindle or Kindle-compatible e-reader, I’d…

  • Lula Washington Dance Theatre’s Kwanzaa Celebration

    Last week my friend Debra Levine invited me to another dance performance; this one by Lula Washington Dance Theatre, who were giving their annual Kwanzaa celebration concert. This was one of the most enjoyable dance performances I’ve seen thus far in L.A. There were many pieces on the program – twelve in all! – and we were there for over three hours. The dances were mostly either African or American modern or a combination of the two, with some ballet thrown in, and music ranged from Fela Kuti to Steve Reich to Quincy Jones’ arrangement of Handel’s Messiah, to a…

  • Happy Holidays, Everyone!

    I always like to use a photo of Alvin Ailey’s Revelations for my happy holiday post but I saw this one, of Hope Boykin in Mauro Bigonzetti’s Festa Barocca (photo by Steve Vaccariello), and decided it was bright and festive. Change is always good, right… I can’t believe it but this was the first year I’ve missed Alvin Ailey’s City Center season in many years – as long as I can remember. The last few months were such a whirlwind for me though it doesn’t really seem like Christmas. It’s probably also the weather: it’s supposed to be 75…
