Artistic Director of the Limón Dance Company Dante Puleio is shaping the future of the modern dance world. To kick-off the conversation, Dante reminisces about his childhood choreographing to Donna Summer and Michael Jackson, discovering that a career in dance was a "thing," and his unconventional path to the stage. Alicia learns of the multiple times our guest auditioned for a job unbeknownst to him, why he left the company to pursue a higher education, and Dante's ultimate return to Limón in a leadership role. To close out the episode, Dante leaves us with his hope for his legacy.
