Why a podcast?

For 30 years, the NC Dance Festival has been building a strong network of choreographers, dancers, and audiences across North Carolina. Join us every other week as Festival director Anne Morris and others dive deep into the risk-taking and dance-making that characterize the modern and contemporary dance community in NC. Expect artist interviews, behind-the-scenes insights into the 2020 season, and fun and important conversations about dance and the creative life. Perfect for anyone curious about the who, how, and especially the “why” of dance.
