Abby Lamb
Dance, Music, Storytelling
Oftentimes women are put into a specific stereotype and outline of what we should be or how we should act. This becomes isolating or lonely given the expectations. A 6 foot by 7 foot cube is used as a representation of isolation. Dancers dance inside, outside, and on the cube to represent the struggle of fitting in or breaking out of a stereotype.
With a stereotype women feel pressured to be exactly like other women. Someone who will dress and groom themselves in a specific manner; to wear makeup, have their hair done, and always look their best. This stereotype has been carried through generations and effects more then just a womans mentality. This stereotype is seen in the work place, on the street, or through social media. Through personal experiences and conversations with others, women are treated in specific ways that create uncomfortable circumstances and difficultly in finding powerful positions.
This production is meant to inspire, celebrate, and reflect the lives of women. All audiences can find a connection and a way to empower future generations of women.

About the Artist
Just last year, Abby Lamb choreographed, directed, and produced a show called “Roots Ignite”. This show debuted in Philadelphia's Fringe Festival and became a top pick show in week three. With her success and experience in 2023, Abby wanted to create something new for 2024.
Abby is a 2022 early graduate scholarship student from Rowan University with a BA in Dance, a certification in dance studio management, and Certification of Eligibility in teaching dance. During her time at Rowan, Abby was in several mainstages, such as Groove!, Small Gifts, and Making Good Trouble. She was also heavily involved in Rowan's contemporary dance company, Dance Extensions, and a member of Rowan's Hip Hop dance crew, 3D.
Prior to Rowan, Abby Lamb was a competitive dancer at Dance! By Debra Dinote for fifteen years. Here she performed on Main Street USA in Walt Disney World and with the Philadelphia Soul football team.
Abby is now the dance teacher at Williamstown Middle school in south Jersey. This is her first year teaching and the first year of the dance program at the middle school. Abby continues teaching outside of school at Dance! By Debra Dinote and Adagio Dance center.
Abby is extremely proud of the hard work and dedication her dancers have shown and cannot wait to show her new work!
