We were back together with our opening week jury last night, the kids who got this year's CCA going. And they were ready to be back!!! The energy was high for Broken Lights, a dance piece by Saburo Teshigawara that involves, well, a LOT of broken glass...
But first, we got a bit crazy in the parking lot. As soon as I pulled in Lars jumped on our car - look at that good mood smile! The car was swarmed before I even got it parked...
The energy drinks didn't help!
Hallo Jana!

to walk the red carpet!
pre-show hang-outs
isn't this a super bag? it's her own three dogs!
Mingling with the people
Leon brought a flashlight, maybe he knew from the title of the show that light would be a theme tonight?
After the show, the jury was asked what they thought...
And then we met with the choreographer himself, as well as dancer Rihoko Sato, and asked all the questions we needed to know: First and foremost, why glass? Leon asked if he could step on it, and Saguro let him - you'll have to wait for the video to see it....
It was a pretty great artist talk, followed by, of course, jury evaluations of the show. At 10:30pm, we rolled out of the colourful park. Whatta night!
