Deborah Cooper - Live Performance

Live Performance

Cooper appears and performs live at club, casino, circuit parties, corporate and special events. Due to the popularity and longevity of "Deeper Love", known as "Pride", she frequently appears at GLBT events, Prides, and fundraisers.

In the late 1990s Ms. Cooper's Personal Appearance Manager Scott Sherman of the Atlantic Entertainment Group specifically developed for Deborah a new concept for non live music appearances, known as "track" shows, typically utilized in smaller venues and "one night" limited runs.

With her team of her Personal Appearance Manager, working with choreographer Luis Villabon, Sound engineer Henry "Butch" Jackson, AMS Services for lighting and effects; her costumes included designer regalia by Gianni Versace, Marc Baur the previous live appearance track show evolved into a portable production show fitting both smaller and larger venues.

A collaboration with dancer and choreographer, Luis Villabon, Cooper and manager Scott Sherman, a retired professional dancer himself, they purposely cast experienced, Broadway trained dancers; rather than customary hip hop shakers. In combining classically trained dancers: Jazz, Ballet, "show" dancing; with "street" and hip hop movement, including professional staging and meticulous choreography, her new look and style was established; thus starting a trend among similar acts.

Famous quotes containing the words live and/or performance:

    We Americans have the chance to become someday a nation in which all radical stocks and classes can exist in their own selfhoods, but meet on a basis of respect and equality and live together, socially, economically, and politically. We can become a dynamic equilibrium, a harmony of many different elements, in which the whole will be greater than all its parts and greater than any society the world has seen before. It can still happen.
    Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)

    Kind are her answers,
    But her performance keeps no day;
    Breaks time, as dancers,
    From their own music when they stray.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
