"I got excited not only by the look and design of Bench but by the creative direction and dynamic of the compagny. I am fascinated by fashion as an art form and was instantly excited about creating a show aournd Bench designs. I wanted to bring story and emotion to the show as well as my style of movement and circus. I wanted the audience to be moved by the performance. I wanted them to be thrilled by the sexyness of the clothing as well by the models and performers wearing the designs but also I wanted the show to be a visceral experience."
