Elliott Mattox (Beetlejuice, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) has worked with videographer Pierre Marais (Aladdin) and a cast filled with Broadway ensemble members to create an homage to Elton John's "I'm Still Standing" that operates as a sort of video scrapbook of the journey so many have been on this year.

A quote from director/choreographer Elliott Mattox: "At the beginning of 2020, I set a goal for myself that I would put dance on video every month. Little did I know that the world would completely be turned upside down, especially for theatre artists. Despite the challenges, I have loved navigating how to be creative with the new parameters we have to work with.

I'm so grateful to have worked with some many amazing artists this year. I hope people see this as a celebration of the resilience of the theatre community. We've made it through what is easily the hardest time for the theatre that we have ever seen. I truly believe that we will be back and stronger than ever!"
