CHOREOGRAPHY

choreographic mission

As a dancer and choreographer, I have an obligation to both express other people’s opinions as well as my own.  To interpret and create.  What interests me most is taking inspiration from the immediate world in which we are living.  My choreographic expressions are created from the ways in which our society is changing, the need for intimate connections to people and objects, and giving the viewer a unique perspective, if not participatory action.  The result for the viewer is hopefully an emotional reaction or a thought process about the work.

Find Simmons' choreographic works under the choreography tab in the menu.
