DIRECTOR: Marco Williams
Q&A with editor Kris Liem
PRODUCER: Danielle Beverly
EDITOR: Kris Liem

The Martha Graham Dance Company commissions famed choreographer Andonis Foniadakis to create Echo, a new piece for the 2013-2014 season. But when Foniadakis’s fluid, improvisational style collides with Graham’s traditional structure, drama ensues. An impossibly tight production schedule, injuries and artistic temperaments only add to the tension. Will the dance be ready in time for the world premiere?  

Marco Williams is an award-winning documentary filmmaker and professor at Northwestern University in the Department of Radio/Television/Film.
He has been nominated three times for the Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury Prize.

Waiting in the Wings book discussion with Julie Andrews and Emma Walton Hamilton
Category: Events April 28 at 3:00pm

Beloved icon Julie Andrews and her daughter, bestselling author Emma Walton Hamilton, have written a charming celebration of the arts born from a true story in WAITING IN THE WINGS. One spring, outside of the Bay Street Theater on Long Island, NY, a family of ducks nested and hatched in a nearby planter and paraded down to the water while theater staff looked on. As co-founder of the theater, Emma was front and center that day, and WAITING IN THE WINGS takes that inspiration to depict a fun, kid-friendly story that highlights the wonders of theater – co-written by one of the greatest icons of stage and screen.
