I hope you dance.....

It doesn't happen often. Many of you have seen the movie, "The Natural". I have recently had the pleasure of meeting and working with two naturals, one just this past week. I have indicated in the past that I often work with dancers and vocalists. I had the pleasure to showcase a group of dancers this week, young, still learning, dancers. When I watch a perfomance I have a tendency to become an "American Idol" judge temporarily. And, I am frequently the Simon Cowel of the group. I look for perfection. I write this post today in honor. A young lady positively bowled me over this past week. A sweet little thing, still a minor but closing on womanhood, danced in the lead position on several numbers in the show. She is, and I say this with such pride, a natural. She has "it". She exudes such personality, such innocent sexiness, such sultry vamp, and she can sing!I asked her mother what her plans are after highschool and she indicated her plans are college and med school. I would never council a young person away from such high aspirations but I did tell her that she will do the industry of theater arts a massive disservice by not sharing her talent. This girl is positively fabuluous and such a pleasure to watch. You absolutely cannot take your eyes off her when she is on stage. I am blessed to have been able to coach her just a little on stage. Wow!!

With the greatest of respect to the naturals of this world, I hope you dance.

And,"That's all I have to say about that".
