Nicholas Owens Dance Company, Inc. Choreography by: Nicholas A. Owens Set to a recording that blends Gabonese ethnic harmonies with music by J.S. Bach, the piece uses all but two of the company's 14 dancers. "The inspiration comes from my own life over the past year,". "It hasn't been the easiest journey, but it's been very rewarding. We want it to be confrontational, saying something to the audience through our movements. It says, 'We are here, NODC is here. We are going to leave you with something to remember. We're weathering the storm.' "
