Choreographers

 

 

In 1993, dancers from the Pennsylvania Ballet decided that they needed to do something to respond to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. After much discussion, they realized that the best thing they could do was "shut up & dance." They partnered with MANNA to help with its mission to deliver meals to people dealing with this life-threatening illness. Every year since 1993, dancers have choreographed, danced, and produced this one-night only show, and MANNA and Shut Up & Dance have grown together.


"So we dance, so that MANNA can serve. We choreograph....so that MANNA can meet 100% of their clients' nutritional needs. We rehearse....so that MANNA can provide its services free of charge. We put together costumes....because everyone has the right to an excellent quality of life. And we dance...because food is life."
