The Hallelujah Project
Liz Lerman Dance Exchange
If you missed Liz Lerman's Hallelujah Project with Nobuko Miyamoto at the Skirball Cultural Center in February 2001, here is a real audio link to NPR's story about it:
http://www.npr.org/ramfiles/wesun/20010211.wesun.14.rmm
 Great Leap has been working in residency with the Liz Lerman Dance Exchange to create The Hallelujah Project at the Skirball Cultural Center on February 10 and 11, 2001.
Great Leap Artistic Director, along with the Liz Lerman Dance Exchange have been working with community members from the Senshin Buddhist Temple.
The Hallelujah Project , has been developed in residencies in more than a dozen cities across the United States. In each city the company has delved into the community to answer the question, "What are the everyday joys that make like worth living?"
Working with an extraordinary mixture of people–from rabbis to Buddhist clergy, from dancers to chorale singers, from musicians to everyday storytellers–Hallelujah has developed into a unique portrait of the City of the Angels. Developed in collaboration with Nobuko Miyamoto/Great Leap, Los Angeles’ Hallelujah Project brings together many cultures to celebrate our daily lives.
 "Liz Lerman has made a vibrant, provocative career out of fixing on a moment–an idea, an emotion, an everyday event–and making it come alive in simple plain-spoken dance. God is in the details in her work."– New York Times.
