Jody Oberfelder Projects

Jody Oberfelder Projects present Story Time May 16th and 17th 2025, at 7:30PM at The Center at West Park, a landmarked church full of character. Join us for this vivid dance as we deconstruct fairy tales and myths to reveal intricate narratives. The cast of five intrepid dancers bring to life archetypal characters whose journeys overlap: the benign, the haughty, messengers, helpers, conjurers, phantoms, bullies, and trickers.
