CHOREOGRAPHER NOTES

I originally set Vice on Body Logic Dance Company 5 years ago. The original work was inspired by mugshots from the 1920s, and was around 17 minutes long. Fast-forward a few years, Serena Webb Dance Theater offered me the opportunity to expand this work into a full length production. Vice is now split into two acts. Act 1 includes a playful representation of each of the Seven Deadly Sins, while Act 2 further explores these personalities and characters in a prison setting. Watching these dances come to life on stage has been a dream come true.

*"Take Me Out to the Ball Game" is 1908 Tin Pan Alley song by Jack Nortworth and Albert Von Tilzer, which became the unofficial anthem of North American baseball. The song's chorus is traditionally sung as part of the seventh-inning stretch of a baseball game. However, this tradition did not start until 1976. Therefore, our use of the song before the bottom of the ninth inning is perfectly acceptable as our show is set in 1924.
