Sophia Snider on the Importance of New Work
Being part of a company focused on creating new works is meaningful because it aligns with Ballet 5:8's faith-based mission. Continuously generating fresh pieces allows us to mirror God's creative nature, express our faith, and reach diverse audiences with relevant stories rooted in the Gospel.
Valerie Linsner on the Importance of New Work
Being part of a company that prioritizes creating new works is meaningful to me. It pushes me as an artist, connects with current culture, and allows me to craft unique art. At 5:8, we passionately produce truth-rooted, stereotype-free works that bring a fresh voice to the arts community.
Performing in a work created specifically for me is thrilling. It comes with responsibility and freedom - giving my all to the choreographer's vision while being liberated from comparison.
The stories we tell at 5:8 are for everyone. They tackle uncomfortable subjects, shed light on the unexplored, and resonate deeply. They challenge, inspire, and remind us of our collective voice. Our work at 5:8 is truly extraordinary.
