22 - Hedwig Dances

Meet Jan Bartozek, Founder and Artistic Director of Hedwig Dances, a contemporary dance theater ensemble. In this episode, Jan talks about starting a dance company, the creative process of putting together a performance from start to finish and Hedwig's exciting new Cuban collaboration project as well as the football huddle, the Rookery and dedicated dance venues in the city.

And we have a giveaway this week! Hedwig is offering two Touch Cuba t-shirts to you, our fair listeners. Just write in to yourchicagopodcast@gmail.com with your favorite dance performance to be entered. Stay tuned for lots of other great giveaways in the coming episodes.

We forgot to take a picture with Jan! But she looked just like this. We promise.
