So I looked at our video on the website to take some notes and ended up sitting there, watching piece after piece forgetting to take notes because I forgot how good it actually is. So I am posting now to tell everyone, you better come see our show because it is damn good (if I do say so myself).

Right Now. is approaching faster than we were expecting.  Thankfully in the two weeks before show time everyone is starting to pull together their pieces of the show.  Costumes are being assembled, set and lighting designers are sitting in on rehearsals, and each piece is getting checked over to make sure the dance is at its best.  The company couldn’t be more excited to revive Right Here. Right Now. for a new audience and a new space.  In this revival, some revision of the old and addition of some new has made the show the most cohesive and powerful work YDC has created.  Remember October 2nd and 3rd are closer than you think, and seats have already begun to sell so its important that everyone interested in seeing this revolutionary and riveting show reserves their tickets as soon as possible by clicking on the convenient Box Office link at the top of the page.  Student tickets only cost $10 so bring your kids, friends, and friends’ kids to see Right Here. Right Now.  We can’t wait to see you all next weekend!
