In the place of the usual curtain speech, Celeste and the Ensemble welcomed the audience and took the opportunity to share our particular creative process with the audience. This "peek into the process' set up a way to share our methods - both research and creative process.
The "Welcome"
The introduction "focused on educating the audience to Miller's unique process of choreography, in which the dancers themselves are given a chance to demonstrate their creativity with guidance from Miller." -Gabe Lehman, Audience
"... provided for further comfort and immersion into the overall atmosphere of artistic virtouisity." - Jermaine Webb-Stewart, Audience
"Celeste told the audience that the inspiration for one of the pieces, The Art of the Future, came from an article in the Los Angeles Times... from this article the dancers extracted words and put movement to these words. Because the audience was so informed about the process, the movements possessed a clarity and power that they might not have had without this knowledge." - Clara Kirkpatrick, Audience
