Dance Information

Steven devised the choreography early one morning while lying awake and reflecting on the quiet period that precedes the activity of the day.

Later that same day a snowstorm began. The dance was first tested that evening by those who attended the Inverarity party, a long-running social dance gathering held at the Nealleys’ home in Ardmore, Pennsylvania.

Recommended music: David Knight's Farewell to Apathy (Whatever) (David Andrew Knight).
