Watch Moving Broadway Cover of X Ambassadors� “Unsteady�
Members of the theatre community felt the “need� to create art following the outcome of the presidential election.
Singers, dancers, and performers in the New York theatre community united to create a cover of X Ambassadors� “Unsteady� following the results of the presidential election. Watch it above.
“In the weeks following our most recent election, I was having a difficult time finding the words to express how I felt,� writes director and choreographer Tiffany Laterza on YouTube. “I think a lot of people were, and maybe still are. I’m angry, I’m sad, I’m scared, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t speak about it or write about it the way many others were able to.
“I felt this sudden need and want to create something…anything, that could come close to even a whisper of what I felt inside. The more I reached out to friends, the more I realized that I wasn’t alone. I am so fortunate to be living in this city and to constantly be surrounded by a community that is so overwhelmingly loving and accepting of each other.�
