Artist of the Week: Cleo Person

Cleo Person:

I've been a lucky world traveler so far this summer! After performing with some of my Juilliard classmates in Prince Edward Island, Canada, I've been in Europe exploring Italy and the Netherlands, and studying cooperative business structure in Spain. Now I'm back in New York, as a councilor for Juilliard's summer program for high schoolers. Then I'll be performing in Chicago before finally bringing our exciting project to Kansas!

Meet our Newest Member: Richard Ross

Videographer: Richard Ross

We are incredibly grateful to Richard Ross for joining our Kansas Tour! He will be with us from the beginning of the tour in Garden City, through our final stop in Kansas City, Missouri capturing every moment. I for one am definitely looking forward to seeing our project at work through his eyes.

I am very excited to be a part of this project. It is great that so many different areas of artistic study are coming together and creating something new. I am glad that I will be able to bring another aspect of art to the table: video. Capturing artists at work is something that I really enjoy doing. I can't wait to capture this process and performance to be able to show everyone.

Life has taken me across the big blue sea, with adventure after adventure. My travels have taken me through cities in Turkey, Italy, Germany and Austria. So here's a snap shot of my travels!

Artist of the Week: Taylor Hansen

Taylor Hansen "Johnson"

This summer, I have been exploring a variety of different physical activities. I absolutely love hot yoga and have been studying that practice a bit. I have also been working on my stamina by running every day (or at least trying!), biking, and hiking. I was fortunate enough to spend some time in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where I got to climb mountains and take in all the beauty of the west. But I have to say, the most exciting part of my whole summer was/is getting married! I have had such a blast in the past 3 months and am extremely blessed for all that has taken place!

I spent four weeks teaching arts workshops in Tanzania, Africa. What an incredible experience! After my time in Africa, I met some friends in Italy and backpacked Europe for two weeks (it was my first time out of the country so it was a wonderful adventure.) I am now interning at the Minneapolis Children's Theatre working on the musical Bare. Following my work in Minneapolis, I will be performing in Chicago with other Juilliard dancers before I make my way to Kansas for the American Fusion Project. Looking forward to meeting you all in September!
