Always Looking Up

Alice Sheppard On Dance, Disability And Defying Gravity


Listen Later

In this week’s episode I sat down with Alice Sheppard. Alice is the Founder and Artistic Director of Kinetic Light, as well as a choreographer and dancer in the company. Kinetic Light is an internationally-recognized disability arts ensemble that, working in the disciplines of art, technology, design, and dance, creates, performs, and teaches at the nexus of access, queerness, disability, dance, and race. We discuss her journey to becoming a dancer, the relationship and history between disability and dance, and her experience with flying across the stage.
