Rock choreographer and leader Anna Achimowicz teases new Rock Dance Theatre & Guests tour image “Rise of Phoenix – The Attack of Phoenix 2023”
“You can transform, change and reinvent yourself how many times you want. No matter what you’re expected to be, your only obligation is to be consciously dedicated to your soul, who you wish to be, and who you wish to portray. In a world of judgement, acceptance, expectation and pleasing the crowds, be strong to stand for who you truly are and the right ones will follow. You can choose to live in fear and please others, or be brave to be who you truly are even if it means to roam alone but fulfilling only what resonates true to your heart, soul and its expression. Opinion is nothing. Truth is everything.Rise from your own ashes. Attack self imprisonment and be reborn like the Phoenix” / artistic director Anna Achimowicz
