The goal is to help dance reach a wider audience.
Costumed dancers leap and twirl across the stage, the bright stage lights illuminating their twinkling outfits. A loud, classical crescendo rises above the crowd as the act reaches its peak. In a flash, the lights are off and the audience is left in sudden darkness, anxiously awaiting the next part of the performance to start.
Lawson has worked toward making a more inclusive dance environment since she founded her company in 2017. Throughout her years working and training as a professional dancer, Lawson met constant obstacles and was overlooked for opportunities to grow in her artistic field in favor of male counterparts with less experience. She decided to start her own company to freely express herself and inspire other female choreographers to do the same in an open and accepting space.
Several dance companies across the country now more openly offer sensory-friendly performances and programs, but Ballet North Texas was one of the first, in 2018. The lack of options for guests further spurred Lawson to create new opportunities for DFW families interested in dance. Project one is the ongoing production of sensory-friendly performances. Held separately from traditional shows, these performances provide a more relaxed and inclusive experience for children and families.
