Choreographer is known in North Texas for about feminism, sexuality and culture. Her most recent project 鈥� "" 鈥� tackles rituals and media consumption.
The 116-seat theater inside the Bath House Cultural Center in Dallas was in the process of being transformed on the Tuesday evening that I caught up with the Danielle Georgiou Dance Group. They were preparing for the premiere of a new work called 鈥淲ar Flower.
The usually dark black box theater was flooded with lights and the floors, walls and ceilings were all being turned into scenery for the upcoming performance. The group鈥檚 conceptual artist and co-producer and others were laying out AstroTurf on one part of the stage and mirrored wall paper on another.
Danielle Georgiou, the group鈥檚 choreographer and artistic director, paced around the space and watched them work. Then she looked at her phone to check the time and asked if they鈥檇 be done before practice. Locklear told her they would be and she announced, 鈥淲e鈥檝e got four minutes.鈥�
Georgiou then began fluttering like a bee, moving from one group of dancers to another. She watched them perform moves, adjusted arms and legs and sometimes simply greeted them. She was very busy and a little bit nervous.
