Welcome back to another exciting episode of O-Town Dreamers with your hosts: Sage Starkey and Cristina Hernandez! This week we invite two well known choreographers (as well as incredible performers): Spencer Morrow and Sterling Lovett. As they have a HUGE disney performing and dancing background, we start with one of our favorite games "The Pitch Meeting" as they try and create a brand new dance show for Disney World. We then dive deep into the world of dance and storytelling through choreography. How did they get here in their career? How can YOU get there in YOUR career? What truly separates a dancer and a choreographer. They have all the inside knowledge. As well as how to achieve that here in O-Town and abroad. Get ready to laugh, listen....and cry (AHEM...Sterling). As always a big thank you to Pilars Martini Bar in Winter Garden for hosting us. Follow, subscribe and review! "We dream for a living!"
