Camelot...It's a HIT!

So this was the first show I worked on that was actually reviewed by the press. And after all the work we put into it, it felt damn good to get such a positive response! I even got some love for the dances! Never had pull quotes before, so this definitely feels like a giant step in the right direction. Some favorites below, and links to full reviews.

"Choreography was by Sidney Erik Wright; neatly done."-----Times Beacon

Camelot media

I choreographed Camelot at the John W. Engeman Theater, directed by Alan Souza. It was my first legit regional theater production. Rehearsing in NYC, 6 weeks of performances. The show was absolutely stunning and I'm incredibly proud of the work we were able to do with the movement. Here are some links to video to show the scale of the physical production.
