Sometimes, a dance can actually be a “Choose Your Own Adventure” type of journey for both audience and performer, where music and lighting are decided in the moment, and props are made backstage in a makeshift scene shop.

Darby, Fujimoto, and Umami Playground Dance Inc.: Urban Steps at Atlas INTERSECTIONS by Ashayla Byrd
