WRITE-UP:
Candice Michelle Franklin, originally from St. Louis, Missouri, is the founder of Dance Industrial Professionals, Inc. in NYC. She produces and choreographs for concert, theatre, as well as corporate events and industrials. She first began training in St. Louis, later receiving her B.A. in Dance on 4-year scholarship as well as professional training from the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center and various other choreographers of the New York area. Since then, she has been seen in film, television, music videos, concerts, commercials, and on the off-Broadway stage. She has performed with Joan Peters Dance Company, Avodah Dance Ensemble (principal dancer), Total Entertainment/Total Extremes Dancers (principal dancer/rehearsal director), Vissi Dance Theatre (principal dancer), Earl Mosley’s Diversity of Dance, Underground Dance Project, Phoenix Rising (principal dancer/choreographer), and Nommo Contemporary Dance Theatre (principal dancer/choreographer). Her choreography has been seen on the stages of the Theatre of Riverside Church, 14 Street Y, American Theatre of Actors, Tribecca Performing Arts Center, Harry Du Jour Playhouse, DNA, and Joyce Soho. Recently, her choreography was presented at the Winchester Theatre in the Toronto Dance Festival to good reviews by the Toronto Globe & Mail as well as in the latest concert for Phoenix Rising Dance Creations where her work and photo of that performance was featured with critical acclaim by noted dance critic, Jack Anderson, in the New York Times. Miss Candice Franklin currently is Dance Captain and Choreographer for CEG Productions, Inc. in New York City and continues to perform and choreograph in the US and abroad.
Personal Message: Hello, Candice here. This year I am working hard to rev up my commercial choreography projects, and I would love the opportunity choreograph for your next industiral, commercial, or musical stage performance. Because, I have trained in modern, ballet, and jazz, I, of course, have an affinity to fuse these styles and tap into my classical range of what we call contemporary jazz; however, because I am performer as well, I absolutely love to dance and choreograph to musical theatre songs, commercial pop music, and hip hop. Dance is my life. I love it!
Enjoy the videos!
Candice
