This week, I’m talking to choreographer Helen Simoneau, artistic director of Helen Simoneau Danse, about her dance, Flight Distance I, that she will be setting on a cast of 5 NC professionals for our NC Dance Festival performance on October 2nd. The group will be in residence in Dance Project’s studios the week of September 27 as they prepare for performance. This will be Helen’s first live performance of her choreography since March of 2020. We’ll discuss how Flight Distance turns out to be the perfect choice for the current moment, the new project she’s working on, and the importance of momentum in ensuring dancers’ careers can thrive.
