SAUNDER AW16 Presentation

NYFW always brings about some craziness for me, whether or not I'm working on music for a show (which I am...more on that later). It seems EVERYTHING happens during fashion week; perhaps it's just the nature of February. 

Yesterday I went from my Target Margin Theater Fellowship breakfast, to workshopping my new piece with choreographer Coco Karol, to the SAUNDER Presentation. Emily Saunders took an interesting approach to her show: models walked in between parallel yellow ropes as a circular runway, a dance performance by Grace Rising Dance happened in the middle of the presentation, then the models re-entered the space in the same way wearing different looks. I also want to mention that the production designer, Benjamin Heller, is Coco's boyfriend...the world keeps getting smaller! I couldn't catch the rest of the show because I had to go somewhere important but a little less exciting: in front of my computer to catch a webinar on corporate giving. Womp, womp!
