"This is the best piece of theatre I have ever seen!" —Marguerite Derricks, 4-time Emmy Winner

“That Sheerin and her cast of 30something-and-up dancers manage to tell Vivi’s story without a single spoken word is testimony to her storytelling gifts as a director/choreographer and theirs as dancers, and to a soundtrack that seems as if the songs that comprise STRIPPED could have been written for it and not the other way around.”
-Steven Stanley, StageSceneLA WOW! Review  

"Hamilton delivers the most stunning dance performance of the year." —Steven Stanley, StageSceneLA

"This has to go to Broadway!" —Michael Rooney, World-Renowned Choreographer

STRIPPED ENCORE RUN DEC 10-12


The Rare Combination: Art AND Commercial Viability


CONCEPT
STRIPPED is a groundbreaking new wave ballet that tells Vivi's story entirely through dance—without a single spoken word. Set to an iconic soundtrack that feels as though it was written specifically for the production, STRIPPED follows a determined dancer's journey of self-discovery, vulnerability, and transformation.

This isn't your grandmother's ballet. This is dance theatre for a new generation: bold, emotionally raw, and utterly contemporary. STRIPPED strips away the traditional boundaries of ballet to create something visceral and deeply human—a universal story told through movement that speaks directly to the heart.

WHY NOW?
✓ Sold-out debut validates commercial viability
✓ Creative team aligned and ready to scale
✓ Investors watching—momentum is everything
✓ Live theatre value is rising - people are craving authentic shared experiences

YOUR IMPACT
$500 — Technical costs (lighting, sound)
$1,500 — Full dress rehearsal
$3,000 — Targeted marketing campaign
$5,000+ — Leadership recognition as foundational patron
$10,000+ Cast/Creative Team fair compensation

This is a bridge investment. Your tax-deductible contribution* positions STRIPPED for major commercial development. Early supporters gain recognition in this groundbreaking contemporary theatre.

WHY IT MATTERS
Addiction touches every family. Yet we rarely see this struggle portrayed with dance's artistry, nuance, and hope. STRIPPED doesn't shy away from darkness—it illuminates the path to recovery through authentic human connection.

This isn't solely entertainment—it's transformation.

Let's talk this week. I'd love to share our vision and answer your questions.

With gratitude and grit ~
