Daily Dance: Noah Galvin “Boyfriend” From THE REAL O’NEALS

My longtime friend Fred Tallaksen is nominated for a World Choreography Award for his work on ABC’s The Real O’Neals last season.

The awards are on Monday, thinking good thoughts Fred’s way!

Fred was also nominated for an Emmy Award for his terpsichorean contributions.

Very proud of him. Watch one of his uber-cute numbers featuring Noah Galvin, who will soon take over the lead in Dear Evan Hansen on Broadway.

Clip description:

When Kenny (Noah Galvin) finally gets a boyfriend, he’s worried that his family won’t react well. What better way to cope with all of these emotions than to break out into song and dance?

Daily Dance: “Had She Never Asked Me”

Powerful and compelling original spoken word poem written & performed by Daniel J. Watts (currently appearing in Hamilton), choreographed by Cindy Salgado.

From the official website:

Had She Never Asked Me was written by Daniel J. Watts in response to the June 12, 2016 shooting that killed 49 people and wounded 58 others inside Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

Choreographer Cindy Salgado, having been commissioned to choreograph a new piece for Barton Movement, chose Daniel’s original text as the foundation of her new piece. The original work premiered at Axis Connect in Los Angeles, CA in 2016.

Eager to reach a broader audience with this piece, Cindy Salgado and Charissa Barton set out to capture it on camera, the result of which is this film.
