Modern Millie
New London, NH producer Simeon Morrow recently caught up with choreographer Millie Heckler in her Montpelier studio. Her one-of-a-kind House Dance style combines ballet, hip-hop, and Irish step dancing. She demands "full expression" from her dancers as a kind of movement therapy for trauma. "The opposite of being traumatized is being able to express yourself.”
