Blier talks about Invitation to the Dance:
"I can't wait to set the Juilliard cast loose on this project. They come up with great programming ideas, and it's always amazing to watch them swing into movement. These young people are classic triple threat entertainers—singers, dancers, and actors of startling individuality."
