More stories from behind the curtain and this time with a focus on what happens when dancers are offstage. Told from a stage managers vantage point we hear that the organized beauty and grace an audience sees on stage is far from the whole picture. From illness and injury to unwanted animals and weather. The miracles behind making sure the show will go on are endless. Why would anyone deal with all these obstacles? Well as you'll hear its for the love of the art of live performance.
