Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner

Gypsy of the Year, Best Performance
Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, New York, NY
Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner was a dance piece centered on an oversized dinner table. The six performers danced over, around, under and on top of the table, using their energies and passion to fall in love, resolve conflicts, and share their bodies.

The costumes were black with flashes of red, to emphasize the depth of the feelings being explored and the emotions that are often associated with red: passion, anger, love, frenzy, and hate. The makeup and hair were designed to be both urban and tribal, indicating that with the power of their feelings, the dancers formed their own community.
