Experiencing Interruptions?

"Astronaut Kids" Dance Film

As children we dream & scheme. We think up the most fabulous travel destinations, careers (ice cream test taster anyone?), & bucket lists. Somehow, these aspirations are often forgotten as we grow older. But what would happen if we don’t lose a childhood sparkle? Astronaut Kids is for the wild thinkers, big dreamers, & go-getters! This dance film is inspired by and created to the song "Astronaut Kids" by Hotel Fiction with express permission.
