As one of the finalists on America’s Got Talent in 2013, Winter showcased her talent in a fascinating shadow dance performance with the dance troupe, Catapult.

In addition to contributing as a choreographer for Woof Woof, Winter joins her cast of professional dancers in these special Darien performances that include original music by the Emmy-winning composer of Blue’s Clues and Peg + Cat, J. Walter Hawkes and voice narration created by American Idol star Kat Edmonson. Choreography is also produced by Hamilton Tour Dance Supervisor, Alessandra Marconi. Projection design is created by multimedia artist Katherine Freer and illuminating puppetry design is crafted by the Puppet Kitchen.
Winter commented, “We love that the kids have so much fun calling out to Woof Woof in the show and watching him appear through the dancers’ magical shadow transformations. It’s so gratifying to produce a show that brings together amazing visuals, delightful music and storytelling, entertaining children, parents, and grandparents alike.”
