Alison Clancy isn’t the only person who got her start as a dancer at age 5, but she is one of the very few who ended up dancing at The Metropolitan Opera,
where she has performed for the last 14 years.
It’s a long way from where she was raised, in an “off the grid” 500 square foot cabin in Nevada City, CA that was “very primitive.” As her single mother had a job selling concert merchandise at a local arena, the very young Clancy was able to accompany her to the shows — and, since everyone knew her there, had the run of the venue and was exposed to “a lot of amazing music.”
A recent performance at the Every Woman Biennial encapsulated Clancy’s approach to performance, as it combined her music, guitar playing and singing with dancers whose movements were a mix of Clancy’s concepts and their own improvisation.
