...Since the choreographers are used to such a high level of talent, we really feel like we have to be on top of our game,” Walker continues, pointing out that the short residency of most guest choreographers often necessitates a grueling sequence of six-hour rehearsals on weekends that spill into four-hour sessions on weekdays.
