In her piece Thank You Bar, choreographer Emily Johnson focuses on displacement and the work of creating a home where you find yourself. Where do you consider your home to be? Is home a place or the people that are in that place? How do you make a place feel like home? Also what does Johnson want her audiences to get from her work? If you could make a living doing what Johnson does, would you and why?
