Callbacks: No callbacks. Show will be cast on February 4th.
Performance date: March 17, 2012. (2 performance) Saturday at 2:00pm and 7:30 pm.

Synopsis: What You Believe is a theatrical story of dance that inspires yet challenges one’s mental perspective on every facet of life like never before! Embracing a mildly sophisticated concept, the show purely infuses youthful and mature artists to illustrate the dimensions of life’s choices and beliefs. The two-act show reveals four intangible authorities that influence what a person believes: master experiences, vicarious experiences, emotional states, and social persuasions. Audibly narrated by two main characters of instrumental sound and spoken word, the story transcends its casual street scene of life into a deeper place that one would not typically identify. Each moment that challenges what people believe is subtly hidden yet made very transparent through blissful art. This phenomenal new work encompasses multiple genres of dance and uses a poetic nexus to tell an inspiring story that ultimately inspires each audience member to ration with what he/she believes.
Roles: Dancers/Performers ages 5-30 – ALL TYPES
Appointment/Questions: Email us at info@newventuretheatre.org for an appointment or information.
