I Won't Be Left Dancing Alone
to Songs from the Past

Millikin University Student Project: PipeDreams Studio Theatre (February 2007)

Directed by Ella Seet; Production Design, Steve Moore

. . . Songs from the Past was conceived by Ella Mouria Seet as part of her James Millikin Scholar project at Millikin University. The project, involving a study in similarites between modern musical theatre and 'indie' rock, resulted partly in this production, a combination staged reading and rock concert (with a few dance numbers to boast of as well). It was a unique theatrical experience and a very exciting design opportunity for Steve.
