“Without You”

a lyrical dance piece choreographed by Alex Sheffield and Brayden Co to “Without You” by Leslie Odom Jr.

“This piece chronicles the universal milestones of a relationship between lovers - the meeting, the coming together, the break apart, and the rekindling. This piece isn’t meant to be romantic in the sense of fantasy and drama - no magic, just a relationship that always pulls them together. It’s intimate, messy, complicated, raw, human. This is the honest connection between two people that cannot keep them apart. Without them being together, the world is essentially the same and nothing changes, except for the lives of these two people.
