"Scarlet was a dream come true for me. I love dramatic roles. The challenge that comes with those roles brings a certain sense of fulfillment that can't be described in words. Scarlet was a powerful story and I was more than honored to portray Dimmesdale." - Solo Artist Antiono Rosario
Read More"I really feel this year as a company we pressed to new heights, challenges and to new places." - Solo Artist Lorianne Barclay
Read More"While touring I had the opportunity to perform the piece in many different environments, from a news station studio to a 1,000-seat theatre. It was fun for me seeing the ways that different spaces impacted the choreography and the way it was viewed." - Samuel Opsal
Read More"Scarlet was an incredible experience - from talking through backstories in our character development workshops and having to angrily flip a plate on camera early on in the creation process, to seeing the whole production, dance and film, come together on stage for the first time in the Athenaeum Theatre..." -Stephanie Joe.
