The loss of bohemian San Francisco weighs heavily on Goode, who likely wouldn’t be able to create a similar company today in a city where dancers can’t afford to live. “There are so many things that we’re doing: character work, language, vocality, singing,” Goode says. “There are a lot of skills to hone aside from very technical, high-velocity dancing. All of those aspects of the work require a depth and long investment in training and getting to know each other to reveal one’s self. The work isn’t about preaching the gospel or waving the rainbow flag, because those two things are too simplistic. There’s a complexity to what we’re doing that requires developing a language, and we’ve done it together.”.

You may not want to dance all night, but the Woodside Community Theatre (WCT) production of “My Fair Lady” should at least entice you to twirl a few times around the dance floor. That said, it’s also a production of this revered Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe musical where the male leads dominate the women actors and, in fact, give “Lady” a totally different feel. They’re macho, they’re gruff and they brook no nonsense. And they’re wonderfully smooth dancers. It isn’t so much that diminutive Alicia Teeter doesn’t do a credible job as Eliza Doolittle — she does. She has a divine voice and a steely demeanor when she feels mean ol’ Professor Henry Higgins (a surprisingly adroit Aaron Weisberg) is ganging up on her.
