STUDIO STORIES: REMINISCING ON TWIN CITIES DANCE HISTORY

Studio Stories: NEW BREED series with Lily Conforti - Season 15, Episode 162

ARENA DANCES

Lily Conforti is a performer, choreographer, and dance teacher from the Twin Cities. She graduated from the University of Minnesota with degrees in dance and physiology in May 2021. She is interested in articulation of movement with music, and creating multimedia dance works that are new and exciting for audience members. Lily is the founder and choreographer for Corpus Dance Works. She started the group in 2019. They have performed in the MN, Indy, and Calgary Fringe Festivals, Candy Box Dance Festival, Inbox at Artbox, DanceBarn's Vol III CollabArts, and in other local festivals. The group creates under a collective goal of combining dance and other artistic genres such as Dance and Theater in their most recent hour long show 'All the Hullabaloo'. Lily looks to push storytelling, whimsy, and artistry to the forefront of her work and also to remind audiences that art can be serious while also being a silly, fun time. Along with her own dance choreographies, Lily has performed in work by Kjara Wurst, Gallim Dance, Honey Works Dance, Black Label Movement, and Alternative Motion Project. She will be performing with Threads Dance Project this coming November 2024!
