A Year Ago Today…
March 27, 2014 By
March 27, 2013, a year ago today, a beautiful sunny day just like today… We presented Gin Dance Company’s ‘Deep eMotion’ production at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and we also celebrated our beautiful dancer Lindsay Benson Garrett’s birthday. It was a true double happiness. What a very special day for all of us at GDC. Today as we celebrate Lindsay’s birthday, we remember the fond memories we all shared one year ago today.
