This post is from UNCSA School of Dance alumna Rose Shields. Rose is a third-year member of Open Dream Ensemble and most recognizable to audiences as the character of Abeona in Peril on the Red Planet.
Open Dream is almost done and my has it flown by! We just wrapped up the last 2 shows of "Peril on the Red Planet" for a great audience at Chestnut Grove Middle School. Will I miss the robot? Perhaps... but definitely not the air tight body suit. I think these last 2 shows of "Peril" were our best out of the whole touring season. Nothing beats the energy of a closing show. What I will miss most about ODE though is everyone in our cast, my second hilariously dysfunctional (but much loved) family. We survived all of the long travels minus a few bumps and bruises along the way (usually from loading/unloading the incredibly large set), and completed each residency with style. Thank you Rebecca for all of the hoops you jump through to make the season happen! One week of
Dream Machines and then on to new adventures!
