February 25, 2014… This morning we arrived at the Atlas Performing Arts Center – Lang Theater at 7:15 am. We got such a warm welcome from both Mary Hall Surface, Artistic Director of the Atlas INTERSECTIONS Festival and Renée M. Littleton, Director of Marketing and Public Relations of the Atlas Performing Arts Center. We were treated to a grand tour of the theater and backstage from Renée. At 7:45 am, while we were warming up and getting ready in the dark in the audience, we watched Fox 5’s Annie Yu interviewing Furia Flamenca Dance Company on the stage. They did a fantastic job with their beautiful dancing and great interviewing. Around 8:00 am, we were anxious to get start for our segment with Annie. Annie came down to the audience and gave us a cheerful greeting… She chatted with us and we went over the agenda for our segment. At 8:20, we shot our first teaser for the audience. Jane, Michelle, and I showed a part from ‘The Core’. Then, we went and changed into ‘The Teller’ costumes for the 2nd teaser at 8:40 a.m. Therese and I did a short hand moves on the benches. Then, at 8:50, Annie called us to our places and put our music on stand by. She then started to count down from a minute to 30 seconds. Then our interview started… It was a great chat with Annie. She was so fun and upbeat and made the interview so comfortable. I even taught her some Gin Dance moves from ‘The Teller’. She is one fast learner! Really impressive! We finished up with a sneak peek of ‘The Teller’. It truly was such a special experience. Great thanks to Fox 5’s Annie Yu for spending the morning with us and Atlas INTERSECTIONS Festival for your endless support. We were already so excited for our An Afternoon with Gin performance on March 8 … and now we are even more pump up for the show. We can’t wait!!Here is the link of our interview: http://www.myfoxdc.com/video?clipId=9880238&autostart=true#axzz2uMtovwHhWe hope you enjoyed the video and are feeling inspired.
