Kites and Strings

Today (May 3, 2021,) we re-release an episode from November 2020 with singer/songwriter Empress in honor of her newest series of songs; the Vixen series, which recognizes and honors strong females. recently the Music Video for the song "Snow Globe" has been winning awards all over the globe and we are on the look out for her newest EP, called We Own This Crown.
Our guest in this episode with Empress, we have a very enjoyable and enlightening discussion about ballet and Broadway. You see, prior to becoming Empress, she was Shannon Rugani and had an 11-year career dancing for the San Francisco Ballet before transitioning to acting on Broadway, which lead to her current music career. In this episode we hear details regarding the life of a ballet dancer, including diets, focus, ballet moms, shoes, the ballet dancer's drive to be quiet and to have the right shaped butt. Empress also shared about her unique transition in 2015 from ballet to Broadway as she joined the original cast of Tony Award winning An American In Paris, and we learn just how big a culture shock that was for her. After An American in Paris closed in 2017, she focused on an early love, music, songwriting, performing and the idea that drives her claiming the name Empress.
“I want to empower people to be their own empress or emperor – ruler of their personal world. That’s why I call myself EMPRESS – because I’m empowering myself to rule my own life.”
