Allie Heal
Sola
inspired by the choreography of Consuelo Faust

Sola is a work inspired by the choreography of Consuelo Faust. Using archival video footage, Allie put together a piece that reflects Consuelo’s athleticism, precision, and humor– she was never above poking fun at classical dance! 

Choreographer KT Nelson and Consuelo’s husband, Thor Anderson, have accompanied Allie on this creative journey, one that celebrates life, shares the joy of pure dance, and honors our loved ones who have passed.
