I went to go see the musical Chicago when it was on it’s Broadway tour. I was sitting in the fourth row. You could see the sweat fly off the dancers’ faces when they would turn, you could hear their breath, and you could see how much they loved doing what they were doing. But I remember one dancer in particular who really caught my eye. I found it hard to not watch her. Her dancing and her performance was so empowering. I couldn’t help but smile and wish that I was up there dancing with her. And as I walked out of the show afterward, I commented to my friends about that one dancer.
Someday, I want to be that dancer that another young girl can’t take her eyes off of, that one dancer that she wants to talk about after the show. That one dancer that could inspire others and bring a smile to their face.
