We successfully achieved our proposed project outcomes - an audience of over 600 individuals came to see the July 1st performance of our evening length work, "Honey", in what was the first dance performance work presented by the Walker Art Center since the onset of the pandemic in March, 2020. A dance film version of "Honey" was created to increase accessibility to the performance work, for those not comfortable or otherwise unable to see performance during the pandemic. Numerous members of the Twin Cities performance community have expressed to us, the core members of Honey, the importance of this performance work as a reconnecting community event. Individuals involved with the performance work have expressed a sense of renewed artistic purpose via their experience, a sentiment I also share.
