Serving as a through line for NW Dance Project’s company choreographed Billie Holiday inspired performance in 2017, “Embraceable You” follows two lost souls who are searching for true love in a jazz club throughout the night. Filled with fantasy, missed connections, and awkward first date moments, this work “reminisces about the old-fashioned kind of love that older generations speak of and younger folk (tirelessly swiping left or right on screens in a two-second judgement of someone) can’t possibly imagine.” (Elizabeth Whelan, OR Arts Watch)
