Jody Oberfelder’s “Storytime”
Story Time deconstructs fairy tales and myths, focusing on one’s heroic journey through life. The Center at West Park, a landmarked church full of character, is the perfect setting for vivid dance revealing intricate narratives.
The cast of five intrepid dancers bring to life archetypal characters whose journeys overlap: the benign, the haughty, messengers, helpers, conjurers, phantoms, bullies, and tricksters
