“Didn’t my Lord Deliver Daniel” included one man and two women, wearing the same nude color, women in dress and men in a leotard. This piece told a story. The choreography was active and detailed upon the lyrics. When the lyric of music has a main singer behind the chorus you can see how one of the performers will accent that one solo singer while the other two performers show the chorus. The energy in this song is loud and jumpy, and that’s exactly what the dancers show, the flow of energy through every move.
“” was a really fun opening dance, it was full of inspiration and energy and got people interested and hooked to the show. “Time Out” was one of the most fun performances I thought, it was so silly and goofy.

They wore unitards so every inch of a dancer’s line is celebrated. Although some had random jewels on it that I thought did not fit the piece, the unitards definitely enhanced the ideas and themes of the dance. She also had dresses for girls and pants and shirts for guys in some pieces. In Nancy’s solo J, she was wearing a costume that had pants with very high slits, which showed off the lines of her legs.

She uses pathos, logos, and ethos while challenging this statement. Pathos is used while discussing the purpose of dance, the opportunities dancers have been given, and the competitive side of dance.
